Lunch- bike 5

PM- Paris Mtn with Barry on a muddy, misty, drizzling, foggy, and very peaceful night.  Unlike 2 weeks ago, we saw no people our whole run.  The trail was muddy everywhere from the snow, but a runnable mud- better than I expected.  It was so foggy at times that we could see the fog in our headlamps between us and the ground.  Very enjoyable, peaceful run.  Just under 12 miles with about 2000 ft climb/2000 descend in about 1:45.
