Mt. St Helen’s Circumnavigation

This represents a pretty cool milestone. In April couldn't run for more than 12 minutes. Due to a ski injury in Japan in Feburary.

This experience may have been one of the more glorious things that I've ever done in my life. The melding of your brain and body. So far as I've been able to discover this only begins to develop after perhaps 6-7 hours of running HR +150 bpm. Not an exhaustion but a place where your mind and body come together and an immense sense of clarity and oneness develop.

I have so much gratitude for the opportunity to do shit like this:
- That there are these types of experiences in the world.
- For a body that can carry me these distances.
- For these glorious mountains!!!

This run changed my reality in what is possible for my body to accomplish. I was glad to get this in late in the season before the snows set in hopes of planning for many more in the coming spring.
