ran down Kaibab trail to bottom again this morning. Started at 515am...was real pretty out, a lil befor sunrise and the full moon was still up...anyway--my run down was great, only bout 4 other people on the trail that early.
took 90oz's of water/gatorade mix, some pomagranite juice n some dried pineapple pieces, n 3 oatmeal cookies in my lil red backpack

and wore my nifty merrel trail-glove shoes, i LOVE these shoes!
Got my best time so far-77minutes 22 seconds down(= 1hr 17min) (thats 11 min miles, not great but itsa steep trail, and I walk the first about 3/4 mile to warm up n look at the purty sky, and had to stop n wait for the mules to pass, ha) *previous time was 83 minutes
rested at the boat-launch area on the other side of the river for 15 minutes ..
Back up the same trail was 166minutes 28 sec (=2hr 46minutes) just ran the first mile up and then walked/jogged the last 6 up ide like my "up" time to be 140mins (2hr 20min.) so im still workin on it
