Best Laid Plans

Well, it just goes to show ya: the more you plan something, the more you better be ready for those plans to fall all to hell.

Today's run was great:
+ 21 Miles
+ 2500~ Feet climb
Saratoga Gap - Waterman Gap - Turnaround - Saratoga Toll Road - Turnaround to Saratoga Gap

Weird day:
Tom is sick when I show up at Saratoga HS, says he has to go home.
GIl shows up late as I'm almost pulling out.
Get to Big Basin and the Park is essentially closed for a Centennial Celebration.
Go back to Saratoga Gap, do a run to Waterman Gap and back run into Arturo on the trail, the only person we see the whole trip!
But we ended up getting a good 21 miles in, and man, coming back up from Waterman Gap to the Saratoga Gap is a bitch from hell. Very deceptive. Looks mellow but it is relentless climbing!
