josh and i ran 7 miles around the farm. 

 i guess if i want a running partner i have to keep up!!

josh braden and i went to idaho city and ran. we didnt really nave that much knowlage on the trails there, so it was hard to get our mileage in.

braden josh and i went running at bogus. we went up shinglecreek and tryed to go down dry creek but, we lost the trail and ended up bushwacking straight down a hill back to dry creek. we got attacked by like 100 suicidal butterflys that liked flying into our faces.  we ended up stopping at the nearest creek and ended up spending like 15 min getting burs out of our shoes and socks. about 5 min later we went and filtered some water from dry creek, i guess it didnt filter that well because braden is sick in bed!! haha sucks for him

2 mile warm up, tempo run for 12 min at around 6:20 pace and a 2 mile cool down

me and josh went running on the polecat trail, braden couldnt come cause he still had giardia.

today was a fun adventure, we woke up at four and drove down to challis. ran/hiked/climbed mount borah. towards the beginning we just power hiked up. when we were about 1 mile out and 1200ft up (yeah its freakin steep) we took a little break and then ran down to pick up the rest of the group. this cycle was repeted until the top. the view at the top was incredible you could literally see every mountain in idaho. on the way back we took an alternate route leeding down a scree slope. we got down and had about 9 miles and 7000 feet of elevation to the top and about 5000 down. top elevation was 12667 ft

went to black canyon for our hill repeats.  we ran 4miles up until we found an ok hill...  it was  really technical so it was hard to go fast, but we were at altitude so we couldnt go fast anyways. i did 2x 5min hard up and jog back down. after, we ran back. it was a cool run because it was right by the snake river so it was like the amazon jungle. also, it was fun because it had like 6 creek crossings in it...

went to the tetons and ran Hurricane pass. up to the pass has 10 miles of hard climbing. on the way up we dumped our water that we were carrying out and drank from glacier streams. there was still alot of snow when we got to the top so we mostly just slid down the snowfields, it was super fun. The last two miles i bonked because i only ate 5 crackers durring the run, but i pushed through it and i was fine. when we were done we swam in ice cold jennys lake. after that we went to a buffet and devoured all there food...
