Young students are like sponges, they soak up new ideas very quickly.  Our padawan took to the idea of a wilderness run early in 2004, but got cold feet at the last minute and dropped out.  This year she came back, and with a little prodding, reaped the bounty of the wilderness like a jewel thief in a diamond mine.

A pep talk from a Jedi trail runner.

Back home after the run.
