Marathon Investigations - "Sabrina Little"

Sensations: 

Took a little while to get going after bouldering, then felt fine.  Just an easy shakeout on soft snow to finish up the week.

Overarching thoughts:

Irritated to the point of turning off the Marathon Investigations episode, where they at once dismissed all superhero movies and the value of people who do an ultra because it's an item on their bucket list.  As a bucket list Ironman finisher (CDA 2005), it seemed both a petty and strange stance to take - that life was such that we are only allowed to take part in experiences in line with lifelong passions. Plus, however interesting the podcast is - and it can be really interesting - its unnecessarily bad audio quality is always a distraction.  

Trying to figure out exactly how early I'd need to wake up for a double Baldy attempt tomorrow, if weather cooperates.  Conclusion: 3am or so.
