This will be a chill paced evening run (maybe with some sunset action) around the Skyline Loop trail. We'll hit the major landmarks like Glacier Vista and Panoramic Point.

We are going to take it really easy on the uphill. So the first half up will mostly be a fast hike and then we'll slowly jog the downhill so we don't get any injuries.

There are bathrooms at the parking lot and at least one on route.
