Fri 7/30 - AM 7 hour hike/run at Longs Peak

Repeat of last year's excursion with a much better result in that the summit wasn't shrouded in the clouds. Ran for barely an hour at the start of the climb up, I could feel my body rebelling against the notion of that kind of effort at that early an hour, again. Walked the rest of the way up and down, no big deal since getting to the top and being able to see what's there was the goal of the day. The uppermost part of the trail was an engaging challenge both up and down with the scrambling. Got down just in time to avoid the cloud deck moving in and covering everything above the keyhole.
