Needed to get in some vert and visualisation material for this week, so I ran the first 5k and last 3k of the #DV50 course. . Tons of new gravel on the loop so I imagine the start around is going to be pretty fast. Those hills though after the road crossing are no joke and gonna heat people up if you’re not already. . And the trail up to the Sasamat trail connector was a river most of the way. Happy to say that the #nbhierrov3’s performed nicely on the wet rock and roots both up and down. Rain or not next Sat, there will be rushing waters on some of the trails. . Today was about getting the head straight and finishing fast with a smile at my car parked at the start/finish line. Will likely not open it up on race day like I did coming down the mountain today, but u never know...if the legs are feeling it after 47k, those last 3 could be a lot of fun. . Or if the wheels fall off, could be the longest 3 ever. Haha. *sigh* . . . #letsgo #enjoyeverystep #run #runfam #runspo #trail #trailrunning #ultrarunner #uphill #tapering #raceweek #wearetherunners #runaddict #getoutside #runsteepgethigh #diezvistas #ultra #igrunners #runstagram #runshots #runners #trailrun (at Sasamat Lake)
