For hubby’s birthday this year, he wanted us to hike Quandary Peak with him. Four of our girls were available, so we spent the night in Breckenridge on the 22nd and hiked on the 23rd. We started just as the sun was rising—as did everyone else, the trailhead was very busy. This is one of the most climbed 14ers because the trailhead is easy access (like Bierstadt). It was slow going overall. My summer training wasn’t the best after the…
I reached 700 miles for the year today. I’m definitely ahead of schedule. My goal is more like 1500 miles, though I could only set 1,000 miles on the Run the Year site. As a team, we are at almost 1500 miles. We will definitely hit our goal early this year.
