The Leadville 100 - 50 miles out and back in the midst of the Colorado Rockies. Lowest point is 9,200 ft. and the highest point is Hope Pass, 12,600 ft. The majority is on forest trails with some mountain roads.

Head out tomorrow for race number two. The current weather forecast is still scattered thunder storms with high temperatures in the mid to high 50’s, lows in the low 30’s. I’ll do my final training run at mid day today, then rest for two days, but I wish Michael Phelps would stop winning gold medals cause for the past few days I haven’t got much sleep!

The race starts at 4 am on Saturday morning and luckily our hotel in on the same street, so there won’t be far to go. But after that, who knows - it should be quite an adventure.
