It was about 40 degrees, which was good; but the winds were very strong out of the South-East at 25-30mph.  I ran 10.53 miles, slow against the wind, fast with the wind :)

It was 27 degrees with light winds this morning.  Barry and I had hitched a ride to the top of Buckskin to run part of the marathon course with several other runners.  As we started, we realized we would be waiting for almost an hour at the drop car for the others to get there.  And...it wasn't our car anyway.  So we decided after 6 miles to turn around, run back up Buckskin, and then run down the Pocatello side back home.  We ran 17.26 miles, fast downhill, slow uphill.
