Good afternoon, ICers!
Only a week and a half away — the Pikes Peak Ascent and Marathon. You
should be in taper mode, and getting ready to be in *serious* taper mode.
Here’s some light reading to replace all the hard training you’ve done all
summer (hey, it will probably even help you on race day!):
Re-read the Course Description:
http://www.skyrunner.com/ppcourse.htm
Read a few of the 346 race stories from previous years:

Reminders about Running Uphill, and Running Down:

***
Join us tomorrow evening, 5:45 for 20 minutes of one hard/one easy on
Barr Trail. Details below.
And on Sunday, take it easy. How about just a couple miles at high
altitude? Details below.
***
Train hard and train smart!

8/6/2006 Sun: At least 47 ICers got signed in today. I am sure there are a
lot more but at times the fog was pretty thick. This was also the most
runners I have ever seen on the Barr Trail not counting race days!
8/3/2006 Thur: 54 (a tie for the largest Thursday group this year) showed
up for the final 30 minute tempo run up the Barr Trail. Conditions were
great. However, we did have to do 10 Hydro Hell repeats!!! All and all it
is good to have the hay all but in the barn!
