<\/a><\/a>I’m one week away from Badwater now, 9 days actually.\u00a0 Just finished a very nice 15 mile run, I REALLY felt comfortable.\u00a0\u00a0It helped that we had thunderstorms come through and\u00a0wet me down, and temps were only in mid\/high 80’s I think for\u00a0much of it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Death<\/a><\/p>\n

With my slow start to the year, I’ve been concerned about fitness, but I think everything is coming around.\u00a0\u00a0 Since I got back from my July 4 time in Death Valley, I’ve been doing all my workouts without a watch or heart rate monitor of any kind.\u00a0 So I have no idea of pace.\u00a0 It’s been so nice, every workout I settle into the kind of effort I want to be at and just go.\u00a0 I’m having a lot of fun with it right now.\u00a0 I feel great, I can’t wait for next week.\u00a0 Attempting to go from Badwater, 282 feet below sea level, the lowest point in the\u00a0Western Hemisphere, up to the very top of Mount Whitney, 14,505 feet above sea level and the highest point in the United States, excepting the state of Alaska.<\/p>\n

On another note, my main road bicycle broke, the shifter.\u00a0\u00a0 Odd because it’s Campagnolo Carbon Record stuff, which is pretty much the best you can buy.\u00a0 So that bike is at the bike shop being worked on.\u00a0 I also have a new triathlon bike frame that I’m building up a<\/p>\n

\"Cervelo\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Cervelo aerodynamic frame.\u00a0 You see the tubes are very deep section, but very narrow with an airfoil shape.\u00a0 I’ll use this for much of the flatter sections of Furnace Creek 508. For the climbs, I’ll use the Cannondale Six-13 road frame that I have setup with all Campy Record stuff.\u00a0 (once I get it fixed!\u00a0 ARG!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
