 Nice early morning folks. Nice early morning. Got that coffee going. Oh, man. Nice little sunrise and that car ride Driving up in the Rocky Mountains Gosh, it is chilly made it to a Rappahoe Basin, which is I believe it's the highest ski resort in Colorado, I believe which is saying something because there's a lot of ski resorts here I am currently at ten thousand seven hundred feet above sea level in Colorado and so testing some new gear today pretty excited about this Solomon hat to protect my ears It's got the flaps here protect my neck and Got the Solomon Ultras the S lab Ultras from Solomon Basically this shoe is designed for the hundred mile races and that is exactly what I'll be running in September The run rabbit run 100 mile in steamboat Springs another ski resort So it had this guy has a lot more cushion compared to the speed cross fours, which is on my feet right now I'm gonna start today's run in the speed cross fours. I love these shoes They're definitely a little more aggressive and bulky compared to the Ultras here And these guys are designed for once again the longer The longer runs but not as much elevation gain per se which the race in September has about 20,000 feet of vertical Whereas in like today, I'm gonna probably I'm gonna attempt to hit about 10,000 feet of vertical So starting off in the speed cross fours. Oh, by the way, I yes do have the GoPro with me and so Let's let's fire it up mr. GoPro. You ready you ready to go for a run with these YouTube fanatics All right, come on. Come on. See you can in 5d. Let's go go pro come on mile two It was 48 degrees at the car Borderline put a jacket on for the start of the run, but I should have known better It's always you never want to start with a jacket in the summertime like it just it was chilly But it was not worthy of a jacket So stripping down mile two Rolling out of bounds. Oh, baby I'm gonna I'm gonna talk about avoiding burnout in a minute in a minute Well, probably about an hour and a half or two but first I Gotta go that way
