Saturday 5/5
Today I got everything together and started the drive to Flagstaff. Pretty boring other than the fact that an eagle flew overhead and dropped a huge live snake on the road in front of me. I ran 50 minutes before leaving. I was too tired once I got into Albuquerque, so I just did some calisthenics and went to bed.
8 miles

I got to Flagstaff around 2pm, and then went on a fantastic 95 minute run. I ran from the hotel to soldiers loop and then went to the dirt roads along the power lines, and then back.
