For those that don't know what this race is, here is a link to the site...

But basically it is a run that starts at 8000 feet and in 10 miles crosses the Imogene pass at 13000 feet. Then 8 miles back down the other side.
So Monday Kim and I started our training. The only mountain road open right now is the Elden Summit road. So we started at about 7300 ft and ran up to 8300 ft and back in about an hour. Yes it doesn't sound like much but running at that elevation, much less uphill for 3 miles, is pretty tough and we have to start somewhere. Fortunately the race is not until September.
