I finally got hooked up with a local running club. They were from a store called "K-Man" Running and Cycling. They have a logo that looks like a Superman sign with a "K" instead of an "S". Nice people, but I didn't think they were so Super. Anyway, they did start me up a killer trail run that climbed up for 8.25 miles and then turned around. The supposed record to the top was 1 hour. I did it in 53:47 and I didn't feel like I pushed that hard. There were some beautiful sights along the way and again my lungs felt strong even at 1700 feet. (The top of the climb.) Looking foward to returning home and getting back to my home town training. Although this was a fun little get away and I didn't lose too many workouts. |
