Finally got out to the beautiful South Mountains for a day of floating up and down the red packed dirt. My brother Brian and I hiked the Mormon Loop trailhead at 24th Street and Baseline Roads and proceeded to carve up through National Trail for 4 miles of easy running. The sun and lack of water(stupid me) both played a role in the shortened distance overall, as well as Brian wasn't feeling the run, but I pushed through to the last lookout spot before Buena Vista Lookout. I have come to the conclusion that I actually seem to enjoy running in the heat that looms over this valley so I told myself that I need to get used to running with a CamelBak from here on out on these longer runs to ensure that I have the fluids to continue on these ambitious runs that I seek. It was a good day to say the least.
