Note
Driving from Mount massive Trail head to Colorado Springs.
On the way we stop at Round Mountain to do the model event of the Classic Champs. The terrain is that fast that Matti and I punch half the controls with the stroller.

100% trails and roads 2:15:00 20.0 km (6:45 / km) +1354m 5:03 / km
Ran up Mount Massive. I got so excited that on the final climb I decide to run 2x10min fast. It turned out to be more like a 10min-8min and 6min interval as I lost several times the trail.
This is for sure the first time I have been doing interval training above 4000m altitude.
In my euphoria I crashed pretty hard on my way down... no bad injury though, but I was lucky.

GORGEOUS, especially the region of the Eccles Pass.
Tough day for me. Hamstring pain on the downhill and (mental?) bonking.

I planed to do flat intervals along Dillon lake shore. But I made the mistake to have my last meal in Whole Foods and had to throw up after 3x5min... this organic stuff is dangerous for your stomach... or maybe the 2 coffees after the meal?!?

Finally a dream becomes true and we are taking part in those legendary races. Already the first touch wasn't a disappointment. Probably one of my most exotic orienteering experiences... I felt like Luky Luke running through the highlands.
Thanks Mikell to making this possible!!!
