Here to drop my thoughts on trailrunning and misadventures in it.
I spent the first 38 years of my life insanely unhealthy before having bariatric surgery. Trying to work toward a 100 miler.

Amid all of the WSER hype, I am pretty sick of hearing about Jim. If you did a drinking game every time someone talked about someone who isn't even running, you would die in about an hour

Why is every leg weight training program so obsessed with lunges? Let's get more creative here, folks

It's starting to feel like things are coming together. Back to back 50 mile, 7000 feet elevation gain weeks. Legs are always tired. So that's probably good

I try to not look ahead to tomorrow's workout, but seeing only 3 miles with no double makes me nervous for the weekend

The fact you can't make your ultrasignup private is probably the worst thing in trail and ultrarunning. That, and the fact that they put on results that aren't even through their portal. It's no one's business what I run and how fast I go.

Getting back on the horse and moving again after a failure has been one of my weakest impulses. I gotta make it through this summer consistently. Hitting rocky trails today to do just that

Today the elevation, poor nutrition, lack of sleep, and probably something else defeated me. Only made it 14.4 miles before I passed out on the trail. Not the best day.

Just finished Thirty Below by @cassidyrandall.bsky.social What a fantastic book about the first women's only summit of Denali. Those are my kind of gals

I just cannot relate to someone running more than a few miles at faster than 7 minutes per mile pace. I wish I could.

Good time up Deer Mountain at RMNP today. That elevation is always an adventure

Three positives from tonight's otherwise very disappointing trail run:
1. Feet touched dirt
2. Practiced fast downhill
3. Entire run at over 7500 feet of elevation

Greenland (Colorado) is very cold. Ice training is a real thing, right?
