shoes: Helios Blue

Soooo... yes I am a dumbass. Missed a turn and reran parts of the course twice. When I hit aid 3 a second time I said screw it and jogged down the road to the finish line to drink beers instead. Could have tried to see where I went wrong but honestly was not up for a 40 mile day and the recovery that would have taken. Still go a good long jog in which was the point today anyways but it still pisses me off.

Bolder Boulder 10k. Official time was 38:07. I let up the last 0.3 miles into the stadium and I should not have, if I only would have known how close I was to breaking 38. This is a 10K PR for me so very pleased considering the volume on the bike the last 2 days.

Really starting to worry that I might be peaking to soon. Need to give this some thoughts. Do I grind myself into the ground then recover for Leadman, keep the same volume, or back off?
