Dry Creek with Hudson. 2.1 miles
White Rocks in Golden in the afternoon with Maureen. On the way up alternated sprints with walks. On the way down went as fast as possible without cracking my skull on the rocks. 5.8 miles and 1,270'
Week ending Sunday January 29
Hudson 13.1 miles with 2 summits (Sanitas & Green)
Chris 44.5 miles with 8,325' - 6th and 4th best totals respectively
SATURDAY
Dry Creek with Hudson. 15F. Hud checked out the field when we crossed the bridge for a good minute - scanning for that bad dog. He went to where the fight was and did a dance of sorts. After that - same as usual, including sprints with two buddies. 2.1 miles
Teller Farms late morning. 12.3 miles and 787'
Here is a stolen photo from last weekend's race
FRIDAY
Green Mountain West at sunrise with Hudson. Saw two wild turkeys near the trailhead. Pretty icy. 2.8 miles with 600'
Green Mountain West with Maureen in the afternoon. An inch had fallen since the morning making it that much more slippery. 2.8 miles with 600'
THURSDAY
Dry Creek with Hudson. We ended up in a vicious fight with a psycho Boxer - eventually we won. Bullshit start to the day. Went back later to make sure Hud was good (socializing) and he played with several dogs
Mount Sanitas after work. Legs were tired - I think the dozen or so people who saw me were worried I was going to die. 3.1 miles and 1,357'
WEDNESDAY
Mount Sanitas at sunrise with Hudson. 2.6 miles and 1,357'
Went to Betasso Preserve in afternoon for a 7+ mile run but after 10 seconds I decided I didn't feel like it. So I ran to Bummer's Rock and practiced Class 2 scrambling for 30 minutes
3 bottles of complex carbohydrates in the evening
TUESDAY
Last week was good for speed and endurance so this week will focus on elevation. Like maybe 10,000'
Gave Hudson the day off and he was good with that
Mount Sanitas in the pre-dawn dark but not alone as others were out there too. 2.6 miles and 1,357'
Hogback Ridge in the afternoon - I like this trail, single track with consistent elevation gain (maybe 650' over 0.8 miles). And several deer. 4.3 miles and 900'
MONDAY
Was going to take the day off - but Hudson demanded his 2.1 miles at Dry Creek
