Just a thought Ms Meow...

If you can get to Moab on the 16th, you will be able to join in the VX "MASS" run on the 17th.....

Its a great way to get comfortable on an easy trail....meet / greet and bond with everyone,
and hook up with others of similar experience and 'ambitions' for the rest of the week...

...and of course, have a brew on the "Stoop" after!

Look fwd to meeting you.
