Got up Malan's again tonight.  Left just before dark in a light snow and thick fog.  I think I was the only one to the top today given there we no tracks in the fresh snow past to overlook.  Adventurous on the way down with the fog and snow.  Good times. 

Easy to moderate hike up, easy run down.  4.5, 2250

Hip/ITB feeling good on these shorter outings, groin is still an issue. No running still.

Injuries suck. Time to become bionic.

Nice outing... Glad things are healing.

Hey I am going to Kauai end of Jan...remember you went there and ran that Napali coast trail. Any info you can give or recommended trail runs? Is that trail worth it to do the whole 22 mile out and back..if so how long did it take you so I can add 3 hours for my time.

Yeah it does sound like we had a similar day of training. I love the runs up Wire. I wish Malan's was a bit closer so I could mix it in as well. Hey, I recently listened to an interview with Tony Krupicka and he said that since his injury this summer he has been almost exclusivley training by hiking up Green Mt. in Boulder and he says his fitness is pretty great right now. Keep hittin' the peak.

Nice work man. Way to get out there even if you're not running. Like Scott said, you can still keep a lot of your fitness even without running - AND still enjoy the scenery! I'll bet that trail looks pretty cool engulfed in the snow and fog. I need to get up there one of these days.

Yehaw buddy - good to see you hitt'n it.
