Trail Running

[Peter Minde]

I was waiting for you to chime in.
Like I said originally, I'm not a runner and the local woods are quite hilly, so I'm really trail jogging as well.

@marcski Even when I was running trail marathons back in the day, I was walking the big hills. Just beware of the terrain. If I fall, it's usually near the end of the day and I'm paying less attention to roots, rocks and other obstacles. That's how I broke my wrist last summer. My new mantra is "There are landmines everywhere."

It’s not a competition.
It’s sad.

The Fastest Known Times that are being set are mind boggling. Hillary Geraldi just set the FKT for the Mont Blanc summit, round trip from the church in Chamonix, in 7 hours and 25 minutes. In May of 1993, I soloed from the church and back and it took me 5 days.
