Lake Mountain with Jacob:

This is one of my favorite winter runs. It is usually tracked out most of the winter, so you can get up there without breaking trail and it is always a great workout. It was cold when we started, but when we hit the canyon I was pretty warm the rest of the way up. We were a little slower than normal, but I really enjoyed the morning. 2700 feet of vertical smile and a great way to start the week.

Nice! I do love LM in winter best, too. I'm think that the leg is on the mend and that I'll try for some Lake Mountainage soon. I know I better hurry, you've only got 14 more peaks to hit your goal!

glad you didn't kill Jacob. He pushed a bit the day before. :) I also agree, LM is best in snow. Neasts, when you're up for it, let's do it!

Do you run in snowshoes? I'm hearing about these snowshoe races, they sound lovely. Please send a rec on an inexpensive, good pair if you do! :)

Jackie- I typically don't run in snowshoes, however I do have to pair and I could give you a recommendation. How much do you want to spend? I have some of these and I have been really happy with them. They are reasonably priced and have worked really well for me.
