| shoes: Montrail Diez Vista |
| white river 50 mile trailrace... was doing great until mile 25, then the downhill destroyed all hopes for a good finish... my left hip started hurting like hell and didnt respond anymore a few miles further so i had to quit.... legs, nutrition and GI were doing great... back in the med-tent the doctor told me my left leg (the hip that always hurts) is almost 1/2inch longer than the other... after all those years and doctors i didnt know... looks like i ll go to a physio therapist and pediatrist to get that checked out... ran 30 miles and today my legs arent even sore... i hope that an insert will solve my problem.... |

| trioba 24h nr 2 in cle elum... DNF after 18h, .... brutal race, probably around 10% finisher ratio (results not out yet).... the course was awesome but super hard.... bushwhacking galore, swimming in an ice cold lake, 8hrs biking in 100F weather up a 6000ft pass and almost all of it technical singletrack, ..... jeff blew up 1/4 through the last trekking section, no way to finish it....
i feel surprisingly good today, scratched up well but muscles are feeling good.... |

| 2nd part of the white river 50 miler... started out nice and peacefully on the squakum flats, then up to the start of the race, up to suntop, and down the fire road... i ran a little too fast in the beginning since i was chatting with eric up in front of the lane, then paid for it on the uphills... its was sunny and hot instead of rainy so that didnt help.. the downhill on fire road was ok... my legs arent nearly as tired as last weekend though.... tapering here i come... |
