Best Running Picture of 2018

This picture was shot 10/14/2018 @ 6:34 pm in the Moab Desert.    This was my second pacing assignment running with Grant between "Dry Valley" and " Wind Whistle"  aid stations.  It was super cold ,  1C into a constant 50 kmh wind...brutal.   What should have took us 4 hours ended up closer to 8.  Grant developed a lean and was moving very slowly stopping often to stretch.   His Moab 240 ended after he competed this segment logging more then 155 mile in 2.5 days.
