Report

Started at Rainbow Point pretty late in the day due to some confusion about shuttles and inability to find parking for the other car at Fairyland Point (there's no shuttle that goes to either of these). Finding the route was mostly straightforward but got turned around at least 4 times in the woodsy sections and when crossing washes. Didn't see anyone for the first 20 ish miles. Ran the first 22 or so with a friend to Bryce Point and then the rest solo. Carried 1L of water which wasn't really enough so refilled with water some friends brought at Bryce Point. Kept a pretty casual pace and hiked all of the hills. The last section is the most beautiful by far and could not stop taking photos.

Hey Jo Ann! Planning to get after this on Friday, conditions permitting. Added you on Strava as I didn't know the best way to reach out, but just wanted to say thanks for putting a women's time up :)

Cheers,

Lauren
