LANCE @ NYM
His time was 2:59:36. Jeff O'Reilly guessed 2:59; Robin Waterwoman
guessed 3:00. Neither of them included seconds, so I'll call it a tie.
Under the Quispe rule, you will have to run 1 mile for every minute
you were off, continuously, on Thursday. J

THURSDAY RUN
Location: Lookout/Chimney Gulch. We will run here rain or moonshine.
Time: The early group starts around 5:30pm. The main group will start
at 6:15pm.
Run notes: You can run the road option, either one or both ways, if
you don't feel comfortable on trails at night. Wear reflective gear.
Note that the road is significantly longer to/from Windy Saddle. This
is an out-and-back run, so you can turn whenever you want.
If you haven't figured it out already, bring a light.
If you are new to DTR, or unfamiliar with the trails, directions or
ratings, please follow the link below to maps, route descriptions,
driving directions, FAQs, and other information.
