Draper trails/View Benchmark night run with MVH, Jun and Mark:

We did the same exact loop that we (me Jsh and Jun) did a few weeks back on our night run, taking the long route up to View Benchmark. MVH had just come from running the Pfeifferhorn and already had 20 miles under his belt at the start. Animal. The first half of the run was really fun. I was feeling good and it was a lot of fun just chatting and laughing. On the way up to VB my tummy took a turn for the worse and I was feeling quite sick. On the way down from the summit my GI issues went from worse to horrendous. I'll spare the details. It was bad. At least I gave the guys something to laugh at for a few minutes. Oh and VH where were the wipes? First time in months he hasn't been carrying a 3 month supply. DRATS!

After the 'incident' I was feeling pretty good and really enjoyed the run until I took a hard fall on my hip with about 1.5 miles to go. I took it slow the rest of the way down. Overall it was a pretty fun night with a lot of laughs.

I sacrificed a couple of tank tops back in the day.

The "incident"...that's classic.

Catherine- Good to see I'm not the only one in that club. :)

I would hate to be the guy running behind you... He's probably still seeing sun spots.
