Occasionally. Red Rock Canyon is about 30min away which has world class climbs. But it’s usually crowded / spots taken. 20yrs should, you’d be alone. These days for me, I mostly powerlift and snowboard.

Just checking in to let y’all know I’m still around. Just not running atm. :'( I was a little dehydrated after the mountain last Friday night. Took 3 days off and I’ve been unable to breathe through my mouth when running. And now talking, eating is hard. Like it feels like something is stuck in my throat. And I choke. So…

8/31: 17.6mi , 5,000 vertical gain. That’s a wrap on August: 169.1mi

6.3mi recovery run. 60min.

8/30: 6.3mi recovery run. 60min. Tonight I’m hitting the high mtns with friends to run some peaks! Happy Friday!! August total: 151.5mi

6mi medium progressive run to 7:40 pace

8/29: 6mi medium progressive up to 7:40 pace. Bit warm in the gym today. But not as bad as 113f outside! :D August total: 145.2mi

As it cools down over here, I run a lot more. September goal: 200mi

It might not be for everyone, but mine is definitely running mountains. The only thing I do at home (exercise) is yard work and plop into the pool.

That sounds right. I’m 5’ 11 165 and I usually get 145cal/mi. I can raise it to over 200/mi if I’m doing hard hill runs. Highest I’ve seen yet was 1,180 for 6mi hill tempo.

6mi recovery run at 9:00/mi

8/28: 6mi treadmill. Recovery pace @ 9 Body is back to normal. Was watching the hurricane coverage on the TV screen. It’s not looking good for FL. August total: 139.2mi

Thanks. Ya after refueling all night, I woke up today feeling normal. Just have to remember to limit my outdoor exposure before 7pm. (112f today). Counting those days till Fall hits haha. @rheddmobile Best of luck finding a solution and quick recovery. Doesn’t sound fun.

Did some work in the heat today. Unfortunate timing. Drank almost 2 gallons. Still dehydrated. Physically drained. Scrapped my night trail run for 18 strides at the park. Felt ok after, but I was definitely 70% there. Nice sunset though! Was still 101f :D 8/27: 2mi August total: 133.2mi

Really didn’t want to deal with the heat (109f) So treadmill it was. And it was a long one. Progressive run right into a speed hike mountain simulation at 13%. 3,050ft, 9.2mi. 2 hours. 8/26: 9.2mi , 3050ft August total: 131.2mi

4.1mi easy this evening. 106f

8/25: 4.1mi easy on the park path this evening. 106f. August total: 122mi

8/24: 6.3mi progressive run. 52:27. Started off slow and warming up at 9:00, ended at 6:59. Being at altitude yesterday sure made today feel easier. Hoping to be near race shape in a couple months when Fall season hits. Going to put in work. Happy Saturday! August total: 117.9mi

9.6mi trail run to 11,000ft. 3,300ft of climbing.

8/23: 9.6mi trailrun to 11,000ft. 3,300ft of climbing. Enjoyed the 51f temps vs 106 in the valley. Felt great! Endurance is improving. August total: 111.6mi

I just manually enter it. If you run with incline, you can use online calculators to determine the altitude climbed. The only thing for Strava is that manual entries are not counted for leaderboards, challenges.

3mi treadmill mountain simulation at 8% incline. 37:28 (12:27/mi) 1,271ft elevation gain.

8/22: 3mi treadmill mountain simulation at 8% incline (37:28) 12:27/mi avg. 1,271ft elevation gain. Needed a break from the heat outside. Felt a little drained this morning. So indoors today. Aiming for high altitude mountains tomorrow. August total: 101.9mi
