Hike/Scramble (With a bunch of running) 5:00:00 [3] 23.0 km (13:03 / km) +1500m 9:50 / km
A gorgasm day in the mountains with Slice, CO, Nicki and Miles. You can't ask for anything better this time of year. It was spectacular! I felt good up until the last couple of km of running where I reached my current fitness level. This is the kind of training I need right now. Something that pushes me just past where I'm at so that I can start building. The run around Emerald Lake in the morning was still and clear, making the reflections in the lake stunning. The climb up to Mount Field summit was really fun , first following the trail up to the Highline Trail turn-off but continuing on to scramble to the summit. On the way back we ran the Highline Trail out to Yoho Pass trail, down to Emerald Lake and back around. Finished with a dip in the lake and a huge feed at Mile's place.
