Welcome back everyone! It was an excellent holiday weekend, and I hope you all took advantage of the great weather. Saturday was the Leadville Heavy Half Trail Marathon. The entire event was very well run from the check-in, trail markers, aid stations, to the post-race volunteers. I want to thank everyone involved for putting on such an excellent event. I will definitly be back for more punishment next year. My finishing time was 3:07:58 for the 15 mile Heavy Half, finished 54th overall out of 215 finishers, and was 4th in my age division. I stayed very well hydrated (filled my Nathan water bottle at each aid station), maintained proper running form (for the most part), and really enjoyed myself. It was such a friendly and positive atmosphere with encouragement from volunteers, spectators, and other runners. Great times in the mountains!
