Ahhhhhh Colorado! The air smells fresh and cool... Flew into Denver, got there around noon - picked up rental car and went back to the airport to pick up Will, who was on a different flight cause he has free miles or something. Then we both had the same thing in mind: let's bike! Drove to Boulder and picked up rental bikes at a great shop, Will got a mountain bike because of his foot problem and I got a road bike. Then we were off to Left Turn Canyon or something like that... A beautiful ride, steep, not too many cars. Will was going super slow, huffing and puffing and I was making fun of him, riding circles around him on my cool fast road bike, taking pictures of him. We did about 12 miles, 6 up and 6 down, 1,500 ft elevation gain according to Garmin. Then Will exchanged his mountain bike for a road bike, risking foot issues... While he was doing this, I sneaked a 5-mile run in a trail that goes by a creek, close to downtown Boulder. Sooooo beautiful! Runners, bikers, walkers... such a nice day.... nice weather - feeling great. Then a nice dinner - yummm!
