I did Crossman Peak today like I have a handful of times over the last couple months. I run in uphill for right about 5 miles before I start the serious climb. A lot of people drive in and just do the steep part of the climb. I noticed on Strava I the is a segment that is the steep part of the climb which is 1.6 miles really steep and I was second on it so today I took it mice and easy running in the 5 miles and then pushed hard up the steep climb which has the Strava segment. I crushed the previous record by a few minutes so I now am the owner of the FKT up Crossman Peak. That is the first time I've let Strava influence one of my run. Oh well, I guess sometimes pride wins out.
PM. 5 mile hike with Doone up in the mountains around 7000 feet.
