Running (trails) 3:38:48 [3] 8.75 mi (25:00 / mi)
Up Colbert Ridge to Black Mountain Crest trail in the Black Mountains. The intention was to take the crest trail all the way to Mt Mitchell and back but, DAMN!, those trails are hard. It took us an hour forty to go 3.5 miles up the ridge. Then at the crest the trail was really muddy and we were up in the clouds so we decided to bail and head back after 2 hours. Despite that my legs were wiped after climbing 3,500 ft and going back down.
