Thank...Scott, it was great to meet you at the race. Thanks for the post, and all of the great photos. It was nice to see some of the trails you and Marshall were running out there. Since I only saw the start/finish area - which was beautiful! - while selling Marshall's book Running on Empty, I really apprecate the trail photos...and the nice photo of both of you.

Use the old Mt diablo 50 miler map to guide you all the way to the top, if you don't remember the way. I know you ran it before. I always go there whenever I can to get my hill training. Good luck in Wasatch!!<br /><br />Marco DensonMarco Densonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00900699588695535342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860166.post-57319554908764476482011-09-01T10:36:20.599-07:002011-09-01T10:36:20.599-07:00Thanks guys!Thanks guys!Scott Dunlaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16096284778835123584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860166.post-83182245628163146492011-09-01T09:45:32.758-07:002011-09-01T09:45:32.758-07:00Nice post, Scott.

The race starts in Joaquin Miller Park, but quickly moves to Redwood Regional Park, which is where the French trail and probably all of the aid stations (excluding the start/finish) are located. <br /><br />Best,<br /><br />NirNirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07680800447825776864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860166.post-87134730986112587352011-09-01T09:25:18.693-07:002011-09-01T09:25:18.693-07:00It's in Oakland.It's in Oakland.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15202546744119461760noreply@blogger.com
