More Mountain Miles

Posted by Active Toby Apr 28, 2008

It was great to meet/run with new folks during the SD100 group training run on Saturday. There were 9 of us to start out, 7 of us went 20 miles and 4 of us went 28 miles. Run time was 5:34 a swift 12-minute mile pace, 20-mile split was 3:58 and 25-mile split 5:06. (Thanks for the data Jill)

I added 9 more miles after the group left for a total of 37 miles on the day. My final out and back effort was slow but steady as the trail climbed from 4000’ to 5000’ in 90 plus degree temperatures. I’m glad I pushed myself for the extra distance.

Thanks Scott!

I've got a crazy training session coming up that I plan to write about but its going to be pretty challenging--I'm looking to run 14 on Friday, stay up all night and begin a 39-mile run at 3AM. Stay tuned for details haha!

Yo yo! Mike, that's actually this next weekend. This past weekend, I busted out a cool 30 Saturday and chased it down with 18 on Sunday. I'm going to post a preview of the sleep deprivation training, mid-week. Stay tuned!
