Hi Runners!
How's your summer going? Training, races, beating the heat (or cold, or wind, or rain, or plagues of locusts) ?
Here's a question for you - what's the craziest thing you signed up for and did? How did it go?
And here's a poll along that theme - vote now on whether or not I should sign up for my first Ironman triathlon

And I guess that's the craziest thing I've ever signed up for: the Imogene Pass Run, 7 miles (plus two blocks) from Ouray (7810 ft) to Telluride (8820 ft), over 13,120 foot Imogene Pass. That's over 5000 vertical feet up in 10 miles, followed by over 4000 feet down in 7 miles, most of it on a rough and rocky 4WD road. I've done it three times now (missed it last year due to my metatarsal stress fracture) and the race report from the first year, when I brought a camera along, is here: Imogene Pass Run: the most fun I've ever had while wanting to throw up!
