Run: Green Mountain (5.48 mi)

My neighbor John was fresh off his 1/2 marathon near Vegas last weekend and said he would join me on his 1st Green this week. How is that for recovery?

We met up with JV who was tour guiding Mike from Ohio again today. We ran it casual to the lodge, where Jim snunk up on us and joined the party. Those guys took off and John and I hung back. The casual pace wasn’t so casual for him. I remember feeling like that — just last year. Shortly thereafter, John waved me on so I up’d the effort to meet everyone on the summit.

There was a lot of fresh powder on the trail today. Was not expecting that since I saw no snow at home last night. On descent, JV and Mike took off for Bear and Jim and I ran back the way we came. The working stiffs had to get back to the J-O-B! Jim and I chatted about race schedules as we are running at Lake City together and debating the proper way to prep between now and then.

I went 5.48 miles with an elevation gain of 2,444 feet in 01:20:19, which is an average pace of 14:38. Heart rate average was 138. View my GPS data on Garmin Connect.
