Started the loop at 10:17 am on Sunday, May 2nd, 2021. Was a pretty crowded day, however, I did not have too many problems get around people. I started the run and turned into the side trail that takes you to Pine Tree Arch and Tunnel Arch. From there I headed out to Private Arch, the longest and hottest section of the run. I ran into a puddle that is usually dry, however not on that day. The water was knee deep and multiple people tried to get around it. My shoes got soaked and I probably lost about 3-4 minutes there. I continued and reached private arch and then Dark Angel without any problems. I continued to Double O Arch, Black Gate Arch, then over the slick rock to Partition Arch and Navajo Arch. Easy but crowded downhill from there to Landscape Arch. Finished 1:30:40 seconds later. 

I did not have any support. Carried a garmin inreach mini and my phone to track with strava.
