      If I had any extensive dirt trails within running distance of my home, I'd be onboard... :-)

      Actually the plan is to do an easy 4-5 every day until race to stay loose. Thanks for the support Dan!

      Excellent run Ed! Your ultra's within site. Where did you carry your cell packs, assuming you put water in your hydration pack?

      Dave - the main pack in the center of your back holds 70 ounces of water, and delivers it through a tube. There are several pockets in the front to hold gels and other goodies you want accessible during the run. I also carried my phone up front for easy access. I am a big fan of this pack, it distributes the weight evenly, and you don't really fell the extra weight like you do with the belts that go around your waist.
