Time in beautiful places and with even more beautiful people are both so good for the soul. And, if you can’t run much, you might as well enjoy the company of others who are running. Please enjoy a mini-photo tour of last weekend’s play in Yosemite National Park‘s high country.
Bryon toe taps Mono Lake, then starts running uphill towards Tioga Pass.
Bryon begins a 14+ mile, about 4000 foot elevation gain road run from Mono Lake to the summit of Tioga Pass, with Junebug the Border Collie and I as his “non-support support.” In case you’re wondering what that phrase means, it’s basically shorthand for “watch in amazement from the safety of the truck with cappuccino in one hand and camera in the other.”

Slaying 9000 feet!

That was some sweet Leadville 100 training!
Yours truly giving the backside of Lembert Dome a go.
The next day we did a short rike (run-hike) to the top of Lembert Dome in Tuolumne Meadows. While I still can’t run far or fast, boy did it every feel good to just let my body run.

The high country of Yosemite is so fresh, young, crisp, spring-like. Just lovely!
Tell yer' friends, friend!

What's that on Bryon's face? He's taking this vagabond lifestyle too seriously 🙂 Lovely pics!
