4 boring miles on the Planet Walk.  After last weekend, all I can think about is the mountains.  Amazing weekend.  I wish I had more time to spend in the San Juans.  Instead, I had to drag my tired butt out of bed and try and wake up.  Other than when I smashed my toe in the door, I felt no soreness.  Lots of fatigue though.  Back to normal training tomorrow...

AM: Easy 4 on PW

PM: Big Trail Workout with Joe.  It was time for the annual First Dam - Wind Caves - Birdeneau Saddle - Green Canyon - BST Loop.  Its a tough loop and a good one for a big workout.  My goal was to run faster than my FKT set with Jon on 6-15-2010 (2:17:52).  

The weather was cooperating with us as it was hot but overcast.  That kept us from melting.  The pace was brisk up to the campground. 6 miles in 47 mins.  Then came the 3 miles and 2200' climb.  This section was tough and I was not feeling good.  Lots of stomach issues.  We hit the summit in 90 mins flat.  I let joe lead on the downhill and poof he was gone.  That boy can run.  I was running close to 7 min pace on the technical trail and he had to have been mid to sub 6.  Crazy man.  We ran down the singletrack through Kings Park and onto the BST.  I was pushing as hard as I could and joe looked like he was just jogging ahead of me. What a punk.  So, we set a new FKT (barely), but Joe could have easily been 5 mins faster without old man cody holding him back.  What a punk.

Long Trail Run - 

On my own today as Drew is at a race and Joe went "home".  Today's expedition was to Spring Hollow to Millville Peak (9291').  I kept myself entertained by talking to myself and the cows out roaming the hills.  Hit the peak in 2:22 and headed back.  I got pretty bored talking to myself so I decided to keep things interesting by moaning and complaining.  It worked.  I also decided to run out to where the road ends at the lookout point (inspiration point?). That just made me hot and tired.  I will now call it "hot and tired point".  Creative huh?  Good run, but slow, hot and man... am I boring!
