This is the Work off the turkey Sky/Sultan run discussion thread. Please post any questions below.

Remember the actual Trip Details are located on the Work off the turkey Sky/Sultan run | Trip Page

Who needs a good workout after turkey day?  I sure do...

Another Sky/Sultan run, assuming the Sultan is still holding above 700 or so...otherwise, 2 laps on the Sky...

The Sultan is holding steady at 1050, that would be fun again. Do the Sultan first, then the Sky?

I would be up for a Sky only run, say at 11 or later.  If you are running the Sultan first, what time do you think you all will be at the Sky?

Maybe, I'll decide in the morning. 
 If anyone is heading that way from down south, capooling would seal the deal for me.
Sure?

Ok, first of all, Erik - I was referring to working off all the carbs we took in over the holiday...

Second, Sultan is important to me.  So yes, I'd be up for Sultan first.  As a number of you know, I have never run the Sultan.  Seems like something always comes up (like an unexpectedly long run on the Sky due to indecision), or the river dropping, etc.  It is almost comical the things that have popped up preventing me from running it, so hopefully tomorrow...

That said, if we hit the sultan first, where would we meet?

Oh - one more thing - who wants a ride from downtown or kirkland P&R?  I'll be on the 8:45 ferry, meaning I will be downtown at about 9:20.

I can show you the way Leif. Meet at the park next to the bridge in Sultan or the takeout for the Sultan.
