RATS — Day One

Morgan is in 2nd Place!

Stage 1, 19 miles. 3hours 8 minutes or so…Great start to RATS… As a training run for Badwater it could have been hotter, but the miles, hills, etc were perfect. Feeling great, going easy and reduced my previous stage 1 time by 8minutes or so. Had a great 12 miles with Jeremy from Trail Runner and did what RATS is best for, created a new friendship with a fellow runner. Sean, smoked stage 1 30minutes or so ahead, leaving me comfortable in 2nd position with little pressure to have to push any harder. To quote my good friend Robbie, Great beginning to a great training week with water stops…
