Anyone wanting company for a long run is welcome. Bring plenty of fluids. There is no drinking water on the trail. Time to break out the camelbaks.

Start time will be 7am This will have us finishing at or before noon. The last part of this run is mostly shady so that should help some. Stay hydrated tomorrow. That will help you on Saturday.
