Did a nice 20 miler this morning, maybe a little bit more. Had been dreading the trip up Rampart Range road as the last time I did it was right before Leadville, but it wasn't too bad. Went up to the shooting range, then came back down and ran a bunch of trails through the Garden. Believe it or not, the closest I've ever come to being shot was not as an infantryman in Iraq, but near that range when some dickhead was shooting a rifle on the shotgun part of the range.
Ever since I moved to Colorado my first 20+ miler of the year was always at Salida (that's probably why my times down there are always less than stellar). I already have three runs of that distance in right now. I'll get at least another 60 miles in next week, then take a well deserved rest week before really getting serious about Hardrock.
Tonight, however, I'm gonna get shitty drunk on Pabst while watching "Into the Wild," which came out on DVD yesterday.

I hate irresponsible gun owners...you want to borrow my bulletproof vest for your next run? The weight could help your time at Hardrock, too.
Damn "Into the wild" is already out?! Hell how was it? You mean you don't carry your 240B while running??? And you don't wear your SAPI plates?? Fool!
