Around 1:00, Ethan and Spencer showed up. Yesterday we had talked about possibly doing the Pyramids, and we did! It was way fun! Our pace was way slow, but going up was hard. We took a lot of stops, and at some points we were speed-hiking (kind of), but it was a good workout. We stopped at all of the peaks to take in the view, which was amazing, like always. Some parts were slick, but it wasn't too bad. Going uphill was great, but when we turned around to come down my knee started hurting. I don't think hitting the ground so hard helped. I always take my time going downhill, so the guys both ran ahead, but were nice enough to stop and wait. I really like that hike/trail, and running it is a blast, too. When we got down to Ethan's car, we ran 3 more miles in Smithfield Canyon nice and slow. They were some good miles, and it was way chill, which was nice. I'm glad we were able to do it!
