B-hill loop again. Woke up at 5 a.m to a crying Myler. Couldn't go back to sleep so I just headed out the door. A beautiful crisp, cool morning- Seems like it's been the same every morning for  a couple weeks. 

The run seemed good. I feel much better than I did about 5 days ago. I even have a little hope building up for this race tomorrow. I'm not dumb enough to think that I'm totally healed and ready to bust a big race off but the cortisone shot has really settled the consistent throbbing ankle pain down and everything else has seemed to follow in loosening up. So I'll make the most of it and run my best. I'll really know how good I feel tomorrow morning after a few of those downhill miles. In weeks past on training runs that has been a killer... so we'll see.  55 F outside this morning.

Thanks guys!

Jake- I haven't got to see it yet but we did a photo shoot in the summer for the Snow Canyon half and they said the picture would be in there. I'll have to go buy an issue.
