This is the elevation profile for the Alpine to Slickrock 50 miler that I'll be running on September 15th. I'm hoping for a little redemption after a lackluster racing year. I'm back to running again, but I'm taking it easy, hoping to ride on the fitness I gained with higher mileage and higher elevation weeks earlier this summer. I've been maintaining my capacity as much as possible in the gym with lots of rowing and airdyne interval work, and rehabbing the knee with single limb strength work. So far so good.
After Alpine to Slickrock, I'll be shifting my focus to next year. Lucky for me, after such a rough training year, my 2011 Leadville finish qualifies me for another try in the Hardrock 100 lottery. Wintertime will bring a little more focus to strength and power, but I'll still be logging the miles.
