Middle Crow's Toe. One 2 minute error, and 2 < 30 second bobbles, but I didn't beat Eddie on a single split, and wasn't even all that close either. The top guys are clearly faster than I, so I'll need to be clean this week just to be close to my normal ranking distance behind...

Blue - Splits

Prologue. Barely arrived in time. Sloppy (chasing Syd and distract, plus wasn't reading rocks with enough care.)

Run to start (barely in time, not a good start)

Chase - led pack 3 alone for much of the course, and almost, almost caught back up the 3 minutes I needed to catch Erin. Not quite though. Ouch :)

The Chase - Splits

Prologue - Splits

Test run at 5700' (Boulder CO), while mentally focusing on breathing faster than I'm accustomed to, for a given running speed. I think this really helped in the aclimation process.

Pushing ~90 lbs of kids + jogging stroller. It's definitely heavier than a single jogger, but the double jogger does carry both kids. A little bit of are workout too as lift/push steering on pavement turns took some effort. I think running the kids around VF park, on the mowed grasses would work well from both a trianing and steering point of view. (Steering is much easier with the light bouncing over grass, and the wheels probably slip-steer there too.)

I just wonder whether the bouncing of the jogging stroller on grass is nice fun rocking for the kids, or if it's too much shaking...

It should be nice to have this in Wyoming to push the kids around - and I mean push them around the start/finish areas, not the Blue course.
