In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.

I did it. I have found a running partner for my December month event. I was a little disappointed last week when I realized I was not going to finish an actual event this month. I had not started 2010 with the intention of doing one event a month, but as time passed I realized I had unintentionally been logging an event a month. This month I thought I would seal the deal with a holiday run, but the weekend the local runs were occurring, I got called into work and I thought my chance was gone. Saturday night at dinner my husband's cousin, and fellow runner, said she would do a 10 mile trail run with me Sunday the 26th. Sure it is a 2 hour drive I'll have to set out on at 5am, but totally worth it. I love a good trail run and I love achieving goals. Wish me luck, the elevation gains on this one is a little more that I am used to.

| 10mi | 2,740' | 26% | 65% | 9% |
| 20mi | 4,390' | 32% | 50% | 18% |
| 50 Km | 7,130' | 30% | 55% | 15% |

The big bonus is I didn't have to do the egg nog 1 miler a couple days ago.
