Running race (SOB 50k) 4:16:00 [3] 32.5 mi (7:53 / mi) +4524ft 6:58 / mi
shoes: Montrail Rogue Racer #1
Alternative Snow Course. First 17 were mostly runnable downhill, fast. First 10k was all under 7s and I was in 12th with no one in sight. Then, 7 mi mellow up on dirt rd mainly before Time Warp climb (2500 ft in 3 mi). Snow on upper part. Reeled EVERYONE in and got 4th, only 2:15 off 3rd. Felt good all day. Hit couple of sub 7s in last few miles after climb. Played it smart early by not getting caught up in speedy start. Fitness is coming.
