Devil Dog Stout 5K on NYE. Good times with good people and good beer. Easy 21:45ish.
On Thursday morning I ran the annual Rescue Run 10K. Damn, it was cold. Sat at the registration table freezing my ass off until the starting gun went off, so no major effort on the run. Good to see everyone and continue the tradition though. First year in a while I haven't seen Chris B here, guess he's getting lazy in '14. 52 flat on the run. Nice article on Simon and Donna over here.
Turns out that dude who was killed in an avalanche on Torreys was a member of the local Team RWB. RIP. Let's be careful out there.
$100 and I checked out another new brewery in the 'hood. Gold Camp Brewing, down on South Tejon about half a mile from Bristol. Really solid Black IPA. Colorado brewery number 110 for me.

That was the worst thing I've ever seen. Its like a bum mimosa.
Very classy last drink of 2014.
That's a 5k time I can finally relate to.
Troegs Nugget Nectar comes out in mid January.This year they are putting out 4 packs of 16 oz cans. If you'd like some let me know and I'll send you a 4 pack or two.
Cheers.
OJ? Maybe tomato juice. Not OJ. Maybe Sunny D though.
The Beastie Boys song Brass Monkey is about this fine drink.
Bob, that would be awesome! Shoot me an e-mail at jteisher @ gmail
I would definitely send some local stuff in return.
The guy that got caught in the slide is in this article too. http://www.aspentimes.com/news/14473280-113/avalanche-aspen-powder-area Things are bad in the back country. On my trips up the backside of Ajax the past two weeks have seen many places where there are small fractures and slides which on the surface do not look big, just a few yards across, but if you happened to get under it? Be careful out there!
Very well done - high school all over again. What a year!
That avalanche death story really is cautionary. How many of us would have made the same choices...staying on the track, taking basic (but insufficient) precautions and making our way up a mountain. From the linked story, it sounds like the guy knew his way around the mountains, which makes the story even more troubling. Thanks for posting it. A damn good reminder.
