Event: Silver Rush 50 Run
6 AM
Running race (Trail) 8:50:04 [3] 47.5 mi (11:10 / mi) +8216ft 9:35 / mi
shoes: Mutant Yellow
Silver Rush 50 run. Everyone was trying to talk me out of starting due to my MTB time yesterday, did not need this run for Leadman but started anyways. I wanted to test out a new pack a got a few days ago, Orange Mud, and new shoes for the 100. Love them both! Ran this just a little bit over 100 mile pace, but not much. Kept today in check and still pulled out at 31st place out of 350ish and a new 50 mile PR. This helps my Leadman standings more than the bike too I think, we will find out in the next couple of days. Sore in the joints (hips mostly) but good.

Event: Sliver Rush MTB 50
8 AM
Biking race 5:04:27 [5] 47.5 mi (9.4 mph) +7932ft
Holy shit that was fun! That was the most fun I have had at a race in years. Went way above my comfort level and it paid off. Kept repeating "let it roll over the rocks and stay centered" in my head as I was going downhill. I never would have been able to do this just 3 months ago. So fun to make such leaps and bounds in a new sport. Tired energy wise afterwards but ok.

Mobility/Massage/Recovery 30:00 [0]
Massage after the bike race to loosen up back and hips.

Biking 1:02:46 [2] 13.3 mi (12.7 mph) +1236ft
Easy shake out ride in Leadville. Started to feel the quad/hip a little at the end of the ride but not painful, more just like numb in that area. We will see what happens tomorrow.

Running (Trail) 48:32 [2] 6.1 mi (7:57 / mi) +336ft 7:34 / mi
shoes: N2 Road Black
Easy lunch run with 6 striders at the end. Felt slow and out of shape, like I have lost everything I gained. In my mind I know that is not true but feel that way.

Easy morning trail miles before picking the wife up at the airport from being gone for 5 weeks. Guess the volume is going to decrease with the family being home now.

Note
weight:164.4lbs
Wow what a weight jump. Need to reel in the eating this week, especially with the cut in work this week. I was eating more on purpose to put on a couple of pounds but went a little overboard. I don't want to get below 160 to soon, I can't maintain that and feel good for long periods of time.
Hike/Walk/Ruck 25:00 [1] 1.5 mi (16:40 / mi) +50ft 16:09 / mi
shoes: Nike Wildhorse
Super mellow dog walk before work
5 PM
Note
(rest day)
Decided to take another rest day. The quad is feeling a lot better and I figured another rest day would do it good. Will test it tomorrow with a short trail run.
