Glen Cove

Mon - nice hike along the Arkansas river in Little Rock before heading home.  Yes, the same Arkansas that starts up near Leadville and I'll be hanging around all weekend in Salida.

Tues - run commute 22.  Four there and four back.  Still a bit sore.

Wed - run commute 23.  Four there and 3.6 back, had to get to SAR training.  Signed up for another year at CityRock over lunch.

Thurs - another easy day.  Four miles on the Garden trails after work.

Fri - Iron number 9 in the morning as snow started to fall.  Run commute 24.  We ended up getting a decent amount of snow during the morning.  Four inches at the house, much more up high.

Sat - Nielsen Challenge.  Santa Fe trail was a shitshow of ice and snow so I ran a mediocre 14:38.

I spent Saturday afternoon through Sunday morning up at Glen Cove.  It's been a rough year for snow all over Colorado but Pikes got a good dump on Friday.  Did some snow movement and snow anchors, then spent the night in a tent at 12k.  Good times.







Sun - got back from the campout and was preparing for a run but the SAR beeper went off.  Hustled over to Barr Trail to help carry out a guy with a dislocated knee.  Then it was off to the PPA/M board meeting before hitting Manitou Brewing and WestFax to end the week.

Wasn't planning on a down week but stupid life got in the way.  For the week:

run - 28 miles, five hours

hike - 25 miles, 10.5 hours

Good week for strength training with four trips to Planet Fitness and three lunches at CityRock.
