Like the canyon

1:30 minutes in the wheelhouse again. Double little sister hills with some Rainbow add on. Pushed it up Indian a bit into the ice trail. Pretty much had to down climb to get back to the dirt. 8 miles or so.

Started out up the north BST chasing Cory.  Soon ran into the H-diggity and Orero on their way back and right behind them the Shane, Cory and Aric. They kindly turned around and ran with me out to the the nature center parking lot and the mountian lion loop add on. Ran into a train of HUMRS on their way out and picked up Ryan.  Sheesh! busy night out.  Good run, 10 miles or so, easy pace for most of it. 

60 minutes bike. Easy, steady.

1/2 mile warm up to a good 6.2 mile effort on the boulder field trails. Legs felt great but I was weezing like an 85 year old smoker. Allergies or worse??.  Hope its nothing, really want a good run next weekend...! 

6.2 miles, 7:18 pace, 560 vert. 

Total for day: 9 miles including some hiking/jogging with the little fast feet.

I should add that I feel like my hip/quad injury seems to be holding up to the increase in miles and effort the past couple of weeks.  I plan to continue to bike 1-2x p/wk for a bit, but will most likely make the bike days doubles with running. Hoping to be back up to 80 mile weeks with 15,000+ vert again by April. Its been a while.....

BST south of  Taylor for the first time in months. Happy to find it snow, ice and mud free.  Easy pace. Low energy, still feeling the funk.
