I picked up Richard at 6AM this morning for a nice and easy 6 miler on the Monte Sano trails. We parked at the Hiker's parking lot and went out on the Dizzy Fifties North Loop which is around 5 1/2 miles total. I was pretty dark when we left, giving us our last opportunity to play around with our light options for this weekend. I think it's safe to say we will both be sticking with the headlamps we've been using. I am actually still waiting to receive the headlamp (Petzl Tikka XP 2) I plan to use during the Pinhoti 100 at night. It is a model identical to the one I am using now (Petzl Tikka Plus 2), just better lighting. I will be using my old one for the first morning part of the race. Since I might drop this one after daybreak, I plan to place the new one in one of my drop bags for the race. Today's run was easy and uneventful, well almost. Let's just say one of us literally lost a sock during the run and it wasn't me;-)

Ultra Kraut, Good luck this weekend. I am sure you'll do great. Looking forward to your Race Report.
ReplyDelete@wells2123Thanks very much. If I survive, I will see you at Dizzy. I'm registered for the 50M but will probably call it a day after 50K, if I complete this weekend's challenge;-)
