    Finished #RodeoValley 30k #trailRace in 5:10:43 on Saturday. In the photo I’m massaging a midsection cramp while power hiking uphill, and grinning because I knew I was almost at the top of the last big climb of the course.

    First race post lockdown was exciting, fun, steady, strong, until a downhill trip (no fall) broke my momentum, strained the right leg/glute, and killed the appetite. Struggled and pushed thru remaining climbs to finish strong on the final downhill without injury, 26s longer than 2018.

    Great starting with 50k runners Bryan & Eliza, and having pal Erika run me in the last 4 miles (also took this šŸ“·) and share salty snacks, a needed boost.

    Taking notes as memories resurface. Processing everything & how each section went, insights gained, and lessons learned.

    Tam summit (#4) this morning. Chased @BryanTing once again to an uphill PR (sub-90min!), just made the 7:22 sunrise and sat on the rocks(1). Clear skies(2) from the start, faint streaks of orange before sunrise(3). Clear gradients 11 minutes before(4) sunrise, a leading orange glow 7 minutes before(5). Finally, sunrise from the door of the hut at the top(6), and a view from the rocks of the green hills below(7).

    8.5 miles before 9 (2500+' climbed). Midweek #ECSCA #50ktraining session done.

    Beautiful day at #SFRC this past Saturday. Practiced a few #ECSCA 50k trails: Fox, Coastal Fire, Marincello, Bobcat.

    1. Up Fox taking in a westward view
    2. Down Coastal Fire Road looking south, a low hanging cloud with a surreal reflection on the ocean
    3. Muir Beach
    4. Touching the surf
    5. A furry caterpillar seen going back up Coastal Fire Road
    6. Top of Fox trail before sprinting down to Tennessee Valley
    7. Up Marincello looking East
    8. Down Bobcat toward Alta (saw a baby snake!) with glimpses of downtown San Francisco, the Golden Gate Bridge, and Sutro tower on the distant horizon.

    ~14.3 miles, 2900'+. Legs felt pretty good despite climbing 1000'+ at #NPSF Friday hills the day before. Finally broke 100+ miles in the past 30 days. Six weeks til my first 50k.

    šŸŒ„ Completed my first Tam summit this morning! Thanks to @BryanTing for conversation, encouragements, photos (1,3), and guidance (2) to the top.

    Starting up a steep hill in the dark was a different kind of challenge. Nothing like pushing physical limits outdoors while watching constellations fade from the sky as it turns from black to navy, to ever lighter shades of blue. The horizon lit up with a purple orange yellow gradient, until the sun pierced the cloudcover (4), bathing everything in warm light. Made it to the top (5) with a solid crew (6).

    2500+' climbed in just 3+ miles to the top, then ~6 miles down for ~9 miles total before 09:00.
