My left hammy is still tight, so I figured I would rest it. 60 min on the elliptical. No big woop.

7 at a 7:52 pace around my hood. I ran down to the Alpine Hwy and then turned north  to Kohlers and back. I felt really good today until about a mile to go and then my hammy started to get sore. The weather could not have been better.

Spinning with the ladies again. It was probably the toughest spinning session so far. Sweat, sweat and more sweat.

View Benchmark Peak solo:

I had a really awesome run today on Ann's trail to the summit of View Benchmark. It was cool, but not cold at the start. I had on my shorty shorts and a long sleeve shirt in case it got windy at the top. The trail was completely dry and I really enjoyed the run. On the steepest hill two mountain bikers came a rumblin' down a little out of control. There are a lot of rocks there and for a few seconds I thought they were going to nail me. The bikes looked to be just off the Wal Mart rack and I thought for sure a part was going to come flying off. One of the dudes nearly wiped out, but had a pretty nice save. I was kind of shocked they made it down in one piece. Haha.

I made it to the summit in 45 minutes which I think might be my fastest time up. It was very cold and breezy up there so I didn't stay long. My hands were slightly numb and I was wishing I had my gloves. I saw a golden eagle and a lot of deer out there today. I ran pretty fast all the way back to the car and enjoyed every step.

View Benchmark solo:

I woke up early so that I could get in a good run today. I had a lot of fun running to the summit of View Benchmark via Ann's trail. This is becoming my favorite training run. I love it. I just blasted my ipod and got into a good running groove most of the way up. I reached the summit in 47:30 which is a little slower than Thursday, but I still felt like I was pushing it pretty well. 

 I saw several deer and some cool birds, including a bird of prey with a small animal dangling from its mouth. I really love this run.
