Medal Monday: I am grateful my body and mind still responds to me to give me good days, even after 25 years of nonstop racing. 1st Female Overall at GVL Half at 7000’ altitude with 1400’ gain in heat, high UV index, and great human beings to share it with. These moments add joy to my life.

2.5hr trail run to Crafts Peak for pole practice on tired legs with my honey. Goal is to continue to increase strength and power as we increase mileage, gain, and volume towards Golden Ultra by TransRockies Race Series in September for my birthday.
Week 5 of 10 complete 40mi, 7200’ gain as 9hrs of running + 5hrs of cross training. Happy Sunday!
