 They'll shake out at snowboard, they'll shake out at snowboard, get those legs loose, get those legs loose, come on, come on. Tip of the day, find the starting line before the race day. I thought the starting line was up at the main village, it is not, it is here, about a mile west of the main village. Just putting that out there. Shake out and stretch went well. Legs are feeling great. The dombs is all done, delayed onset muscle soreness from last week and last week the gear that I wore is going to be exactly the same as the gear I wear tomorrow because it worked. It worked, so why change it, right? The Solomon Ultras, going with them, love them, love them. Solomon hat, watch out, bright green, you're going to know I'm coming, you're going to know I'm coming, you can't miss me with that guy. Sun 2, Ambit Peak 3, the watch is working again, somehow I figured out the settings and it's working now. I don't know, I don't know, I don't know what I did but it's working, it's tracking elevation correctly and if it doesn't, I can fix it later on Strava. Just learn that, just learn that, that's kind of cool. Smith glasses, thank you Smith, love these things. They just like wrap around my face nice and good so I like that. Alright, the best choice I made at the Under Armour 50K at Copper Mountain last weekend was the Ultimate Direction Vest. I've never raced with a vest. I usually use the handhelds or frankly I've also raced with nothing and just get stuff at the aid station. But I took the vest last week and the bladder is currently, this is a little trick, is currently in the freezer right now and so when I wake up at 5am tomorrow, well yeah 5am, I'll put water into it and then I'm going to have nice cold water for a good chunk of the race, not the whole race but a good chunk of the race because when you're working and it's hot out, you, like cold water is a lot better than warm water and your body temperature heats up the bladder and so anyway, it's in the freezer and that's a little trick that I use and this guy has gels, let me just show you here, has gels in these little pockets so boom, I go with the goo tastefully nude because there's no taste and I don't like gels so you know, just go with something that doesn't have a lot of taste and it seems to work. So that's the vest I will be using and I'm excited and that is that as far as gear, like that's the beauty of running is that you don't need much, of course I'll have my ASICs running shorts on and I believe ASIC socks even, so alright, on to the race, here's my game plan, this is my vision for the race and listen, it can change like a drop of the hat, if the leaders go out fast, I'll have to go out a little faster, if the leaders go out a little slower, who knows, I might be in the mix right at the beginning, you just got to be adaptable, you got to be flexible when you're racing, you can't be set in stone because the race has changed like that, but my game plan is to be top 15 at mile 1, top 10 at mile 3-ish and then the first 8 miles of the race is all uphill, mostly, mostly and so I will try to do, I'll try to be basically like top 7, 7, top 7 or 8 by the top of that first hill, first big mountain, 8 miles up and if I can be top 7-ish, top 8-ish and still have the leaders in sight, boom, that's what I want, that's what I want and then by about mile 12, you go downhill for 4 miles and by about mile 12-ish, you're down and then you start going back up again, so when I start going back up around mile 13, 14, that's when I'll see how I feel and if I'm feeling good, let's go, let's go, alright, a good chunk of the race is over, over a third, not quite half, but over a third and well over a third and let's rock and roll, let's rock and roll, so that's like the game plan, that's the gear I'm using, it's pretty simple, pretty simple stuff but I'm excited, feeling good waiting for Stevo to show up and then we're gonna go get the packets and then basically go to bed because we, you know, got an early morning tomorrow and I'm editing this tonight so that it's published before the race anyway, all for you YouTube, all for you You want to kiss my lucky foot? Thanks, yeah Number 10 This thing's harder than it looks, alright
