I am back at Stanford as fly back week is over and classes resume tomorrow. I had a really fun time at home. Between the 50k trail race and the Mount Stuart speed climb, I got some quality relaxation time at home. I basically forgot everything about reading law textbooks, articles, and assignments, but now…

Redmond Watershed
Today I ran at the Redmond Watershed Preserve, a fabulous park for some fast trail running. I have been running the “Shed” since I was in 9th grade, almost 10 years ago and just after this park was first created. I basically know every turn and even the rocks on the trail! I love the…
Cle Elum Ridge 50k
I ran the Cle Elum Ridge 50k trail race on Saturday. The short story is that I finished in second place (4:44:24), 2.5 minutes behind the winner (4:41:53). However, as is common in super long distance races, the results only tell part of the story… I led it out from the start and felt good…
Back Home!
I am back in Sammamish for flyback week! At Stanford Law, second and third year students get a week off from classes for law firm interviews. This is mostly for second year students as myself and many other third year students do not have any interviews lined up. The result? A complete week off. I…
Rest Day
So today I took a rest day… from running. I have been feeling pretty good on runs lately and it actually kind of sucked not running today. I didn’t get to enjoy the runner’s high. I did go to Arrillaga Gym for a quick 35 minute back workout before Real Estate Transactions this evening. I…
3:10 to Yuma
Yesterday I saw the movie 3:10 to Yuma at the theater. I really enjoyed this movie. The acting by Russell Crowe, Christian Bale, and the rest of the cast was superb and story/action scenes were great. I highly recommend watching this film. Russell Crowe is one of my favorite actors with films like Gladiator, The…
El Corte de Madera Long Run
Today I did a long run at El Corte de Madera Creek Park along Skyline Blvd and I felt great. The run was 2:25 and I covered 18+ miles. I basically did the largest loop possible in the park with an addition of a 5 mile loop including three miles along the Skyline Trail. There…
Smokey
There was an “offshore flow” weather pattern today that brought smoke from fires burning to the north and east of the bay area. It was almost like a mini display of what a volcanic eruption would do to the climate. The smoke was almost like a layer of high clouds and suppressed temperatures until it…
Huddart Run
I had a good run at Huddart Park today despite it being in the middle of the day and quite hot. Huddart is one of the best places to run on a hot day because it is all in thick, shady forest. The run was 76 minutes long, approx. 2,000 feet of gain, and about…
First Day of Classes
Today was the first day of classes of my last year at Stanford Law School. I had tax law in the morning and real estate transactions this evening. Both classes were interesting. Tomorrow I have tax again in the morning and a corporate governance colloquium in the afternoon. This afternoon I had an awesome run…
