BUFF Run out at Danny Webb's property.  Group trail run turned semi race (some guys were trying).  Really, just a good time running on trails with everybody.  About 20 people showed up for the run/camp out party.  4 kegs of Quaff beer, and lots of good free food afterward.  Put some good effort in for some of the climbing portions (~4miles).  9.64 miles with 1122 gain.
