Baer BST - shorts and a tank top! Can't believe it was snowing two days ago. Had a nice run, didn't feel like I had a ton of energy but when I finished I realized that was my fastest time on the course, and the fastest 1st mile, which is probably the hardest, especially since you start out with a solid climb right off the bat. Bombed the hill down Shepherds creek and so was pretty beat going up the other side. Took a few minutes at the turnaround to just sit and enjoy being up on the mountain, felt good to clear my head after a bit of a roller coaster week last week. As a side note (and because I was thinking about it as I was running) - My favorite piece of gear right now is the soon to be released Ultraspire Synapse single water bottle waist pack - It's by far the best single bottle carrier I've ever used - I think I even prefer it over a handheld (although once I get my hands on one of theirs, that may change). It's seriously hard to tell you're even wearing it, putting the bottle back is super easy, and it carries a decent amount of stuff, including the stretch cord for a jacket. Highly recommend. |
