NMS: TYA is a wise sensei. Today was a battle less with the trails and more with the elements. Six of seven runners hit the trails. At the start or shortly thereafter, 5 of…

Something like 6 showed up, but no more than 3 in any one place at any one time. Routes were run, mostly in ones and twos. YHC did a small, a medium, and a large…something in the 4 range.
