From the gravel lot maintained by BC Trails and Rec to the summit and back down. All solo unsupported, carried everything I ate/drank, no water resupplies even from a creek, light weight running vest, hiking poles, running shoes. Went full hammer trying to improve on my previous years time which was 2:15 to the summit, and about 3:40 round trip. Mega leg cramps on the summit scramble, but they came around with some maple syrup and salt. Glacier was a bit punchy on the decent, almost went through one bridge. Ran past the local fire crew doing brushing on the last bit of the descent. 1:55:45 on the summit as evidenced by the attached photo, the only one that I took that day, no time for more.
