Ahh Spring

A very nice day.  Mix of clouds and sun with temps in the low sixties.  I ran with MK and Scot up Hoffheins to the Colorado Trail, then down the switchbacks to Junction Creek.  A quick drink for Scot, and then back up the switchbacks.  MK and Scot headed back down Hoffheins while I continued up the CT to Dry Fork trail and then down the dirt road towards home. A short diversion up a steep trail towards the bluffs on Barnroof Mountain provided a little extra vert and some nice views.  About eighteen miles and 2,700 ft. of vertical gain.  A few aches and pains, but all in all a very nice run. 
   Only five more weeks to Jemez.  I'm very excited for this race.  Looking at past finishing times, this one should be a great challenge.  More info on Jemez can be found here...www.highaltitudeathletics.org/JemezMt.htm
