Kokopelli XC

Took me a bit to recover from the long day with Gnar, but still a decent week.

Jumped into a rare 3PM cross country race down south at El Pomar.  5k course, mixture of dirt and grass, but flat.  Was hoping to hit the sub 20 goal but once again came up short, crossing the line in 20:16.  From the satellite watch and talking to folks after the race, I think the course was about 30 seconds short.  Hot damn I was falling apart the second half of the race.  I will take another crack at a sub 20 on December 21st at the Ugly Sweater 5k in Denver's Wash Park.  Flat and fast, I'll have no excuses.  Also doing our local Turkey Trot, but I won't go sub 20 on that course.

For the week:

run - 33 miles, six hours

hike - 30 miles, 14 hours

Taking the van out to Moab for a few days towards the end of the week.  Excited to get back out there, it's been a while.  Mookie's first time to Utah.
