Just attempted and completed my first attempt at ”The Murph”. Minus the weighted vest. Wow, I knew it would be challenging, but it was harder than I thought. I think next time I will go at it with a little different strategy, my arms were pretty much jello at the end. I literally finished with about 17 seconds to go. Overall, it’s new to me, and challenging, and it kicked my ass, so I like it. If you haven’t tried it, give it a go
made the mistake of doing my hill day AFTER I did squats this morning- ouch; steep SOB- ~1100' in a mile (the other 3 miles we were just cruising ). had a little company up top, Tiny E very interested!

Tiny E and I got in a nice 8 miles on the Helena Ridge trail- normally this time of year you need snowshoes for at least a couple of miles of it, but a few short posthole sections here and there was all we encountered. TE had fun trying to dig voles out from under the snow
