Gettin' Up ,To Set Up,To Get Down!
After a morning of errand running, I shot up the mountain to set up the pop up and mark my terrietory. I'm pretty much in the same place as last year, but ditched the spot near the trees due to increased bug activity for Wifey to have to deal with. I sat up the pop up easily by myself, keeping it low right now to avoid any wind, staked in down and begged some familiar race faces nearby to grab it for me if it would happen to blow away during the evening.
Weather looks to be aces for the weekend....
Should be comfy during the day. 54* Is a pretty sweet night time temp, but from experience I gotta tell you that 54 on the mountain feels like 44! I am prepared for night time teeth chattering. Happens every year. At least there's no hurricane like in '06!
Tonight will be nice to chill, have a couple beverages, eat some Chamois Ballz (They need a new name eh?) and hydrate. Big thanks to Wifey in advance for being my pit crew. Damn lucky to have myself a chicky who is willing to give up a holiday weekend to sit in a field and help me. Thanks!

looks like some sweet digs for wifey. Good luck out there.
Oh yeah, got my 2nd reg last fri nite and have been sick ever since. Head/chest cold. Now a 3 week taper. Should be interesting.
BobA says 'oh man you'll be strong out there with all that rest' and you know how he is... you almost believe it when he says it. He is an inspiration and he may crack the 8 hr mark too. My hero.
Tear it up. I know I'll try to.
Good luck Jason. Have some fun.
good luck man.
