RECAP: July 1 - July 7

Monday - 07/01/13

Pineridge - 37:52

From Spring Canyon Park.



Tuesday - 07/02/13

Foothills Trail (medium loop) - 37:40



Wednesday - 07/03/13

easy 50 minutes at night. Started at 9:30pm
nice and cool compared to the day temps of 100+ degrees lately.



Thursday - 07/04/13

Ran home from work - long out of the way route - 1 hr 18 mins
Workout went like this:

Work > West on Spring Creek trail > to Pineridge > through Pineridge > East on Horsetooth > Past Taft, Past Shields > Home

Ridiculously HOT.  102 degrees!  ugh!   and practically zero shade.  Cooled off at Spring Canyon Park by soaking myself pretty good at the outdoor water park!  felt fantastic!



Friday - 07/05/13

Horsetooth Summit - 47:14 (25:53 to summit)

Another hot one -- 98 degrees.

Workout went like this:
Main TH > Rock trail up > summit > Rock trail down > Main TH.

Was hoping for a little more shade coverage up rock trail, as opposed to the open and exposed alternate South Ridge trail. Easy coming down.





Saturday - 07/06/13

Easy 45 minutes at night around town.  
still in the 70's at night but much cooler then the upper 90's during the day.
Easy effort. Started around 9:45pm.



Sunday - 07/07/13

Horsetooth Mtn Park - 1 hr 35 minutes.

Workout went like this:
South Ridge > Rock Trail > Westridge > down Towers > R on Herrington > up Wathan > Rock Summit > down Rock trail > South Ridge > Main TH

felt good. Another 90 degree + day. Easy effort.

  • Officially registered for the Run Rabbit Run 50 this September. After the Barr Trail race I plan to switch up my training and spend the next 2 months in full throttle Ultra training mode. I hope to run well there.

  • Purchased some new kicks this week-- NB MT 110. This will be my 4th pair of the NB Minimus series.
