Hiking 4:00:00 [3] 9.5 mi (25:16 / mi) +850m 19:46 / mi
shoes: Saucony Peregrine
Hiking with Sam and Presto up Granite Chief! Sam and I decided that we really needed a break from the smoke, so we set off for Tahoe today. The air is SO MUCH BETTER HERE. It turns out breathing is highly underrated. It was nice to not feel the dragging exhaustion that seems to come with the bad air all the time.
Aside from all the Squaw Valley infrastructure, this was a gorgeous hike. Actually, even the Squaw Valley stuff wasn't that bad, it just would have been nicer without it :-). Apparently they have been making snow at Squaw, so there were these kind of hilarious snow roads surrounded by completely dry dirt. The views from the top were a bit hazier than usual, but it was so nice to be up in Tahoe. Presto also seemed extremely happy to be out on a hike with breathable air. I think he's been kind of confused about what's going on.

Stretching 10:00 [3]
Normal stretching back at home. My throat actually doesn't hurt for the first time in a while. The trip to Tahoe was an excellent decision!
