Day 523 -- Deeth, Nevada


According to the Elko County Rose Garden site, Deeth, Nevada, at one time contained "contained two large general merchandise stores, 2 hotels, a dance hall, 5 saloons, an opera house, a slaughter house, a red light district, a creamery, a school, a newspaper, a garage, blacksmith shop, livery stable, post office, jail and 42 dwellings, 25 of which were fine homes." My impression is that most of that is gone, now. Here I am on the north approach to Deeth.

I ran 10 miles today, and glad I was that it wasn't 10.1. In fact, I had to stop after about 8.5 and walk a lap. But then I picked it up and ran the last 10 laps, so I got my full 10 miles in. I feel pretty good, overall.
