Miles:This week: 0.00 Month: 0.00 Year: 0.00

Got out for any early one for me with some of the local stong guys. We had a great run on the usual route from 27th, north on the BST.  Kept the pace pretty easy through most of it, though Corey cranked it up pretty hard on the direct route out of Rainbow going back south.  We all hung on and punched it out though we were all pretty redlined at the top, well except Matt.  Great fun this morning, 3 guys with lots of running experience and fast, and me trying to keep up.  I think we ended up with about 12 miles, probably 1800 vert or so.

Feeling pretty beat up for some reason.  I kicked a tree root on a run earlier in the week and it was bothering me today, some pain in my big toe and up into my foot.  Achilles is better, but still not great, and I tweaked something in my hip, top of glute area slipping on some ice on yesterday's run. Didn't go down but wrenched it trying to stay upright. Cry me a river right? need some good rest tomorrow. 

Week (weak) 45 miles, 5700 vert
