AM - 17.75 6th Annual Stephen Abraham Lincoln Hooper Pope Memorial 17.25 mile Fun Run. So this was much to far for my leg, but I just couldn't miss it. I am the sole surviving founding father. As always the run was awesome. I really like this run, it just has some cool places in it (from Enterprise Res. down to Gunlock via the Goldstrike Road - all dirt). The climbs weren't too bad and the road was in great shape - not much water out there though. But enough to jump into the stream at the end which is always the best reward. Steve and I had a good run and just kind of held a nice pace throughout - nothing crazy, just moving along - and then James was just behind us, and then another big crew. My leg just kind of ached once we hit around 10. It was mostly the downhill that kind of set it off. So I was bummed about that, but hopefully it was just a minor setback. (Triumph silver 752.3) |
