Met at Smith's for a up suncrest and around the point of the mountain run. Bill, skip, toni, nick, jonathon, jody, mike, travis. The hill climb wasn't particularly fast, but felt pretty easy. Jody, Toni, Mike and I went around the mountain, everyone else did an out and back and headed back to smith's. We took it fairly easy coming down the 10% grade, I started to slalom down the road to try to disperse the weight distribution on my quads, and that seemed to help a lot on not trashing my legs coming down the hill. On our way up the frontage road there was an oversized crane on it's way up the hill, so I started a little push up the hill and we ended up catching the crane and it's chase vehicles. We headed back to Smith's for the 18 mile version so Jody could top off his water, gu etc. for the last of his 4 hour run. I almost bagged it when we got back, but he said he was only going to do 6 more, so I went back out with him. We had a nice slow out though Highland. And started to pick up the pace the last couple of miles. Was feeling pretty good by the time we finished. Jody did 6 before we started. Great day for a run over the mountain. |
