Red mountain is officially done.

Got to run with the pinkcorker!!!
We ran together for a long time chatting and telling stories.
Really nice to run with someone other then myself for a change.
I think I wore my mp3 player for only the last 4 or 5 miles.
Wow thats a rarity for me ....usually I wear it so long my ears hurt from the headphones :)




I must say the race was very well organized.
The r.d. was amazing.
I will be back next year if I'm able.
I'm still blown away how well put together the whole thing was.

Well the scenery was amazing, sweeping views, strange kodachrome cliffs, just amazing.
Total time 5hrs20min51.7sec(10min19sec /min per mile average)
My right foot is sore, my hips and everything else feel normal.



p.s. if anyone is looking for a very well supported faaast first ultra or just a really fun run(there is about 19 miles of pavement). Aid every 3 miles. Friendly!!!
This was put on for runners by runners. I would do this again in a heart beat.

test

Well I'm having my doubts as to weather my hips and feet are gonna really hurt during red mountain or not.
Should be interesting. I think i'm gonna run the whole thing in my trail shoes.

Went out and around campus for 29min59sec.

Commuted to and from work again on the single speed.

After getting home about 1240am and stretching a bit I grabbed a bottle and a pocket full of jelly beans.
I did my usually loop out and around campus.
It took 43min19seconds
I'm still taking the e-caps during my run.
Most of the kinks and sore stuff is working out.
My feet are still a little sore.

keeping goiing

Commuted to work on the single speed.

That bike is faaaast. Pacing out with cars.
I can ride to work as fast as I can drive.
Takes about 15 minutes each way.

So round trip 30 minutes total

Hot and slow :)

Again parked @ the corner of 22nd and spanish trail road and ran out to the park.
I'm still being cautious and taking my e-caps about every 20-30 minutes.
Once I reached the park I refilled my hand held and ate a gel and headed back.
It was hot today and I felt really slow. I actually dumped one of my small bottles on my head.
Total run time 1 hour 16 minutes 21

4 minutes faster then last time and I actually felt much slower.
