#phx50k

Redemption today! I finally had a good run after struggling after the #phx50k a few weeks ago. I felt strong and the ankle finally loosened up to allow a much faster pace. 🤘🏼🤘🏼. Jams today were provided by @pauloakenfold via Transmission and Voyage Into Trance. His Goa is far superior to anything he has done since 2000 even though I am a fan still. . . . #camelbackmountain #intothetrainingpit #metalheadrunner #skypeaks50ktraining #runsteepgethigh #humabeing (at Camelback Mountain) https://www.instagram.com/p/B17G8upHX0V/?igshid=1ahze2bev9vwg

The face of exhaustion after finally crawling to the top of Camelback Mountain during the #phx50k yesterday. I was in a deep calorie deficit when I got to Camelback so I had a Gatorade and headed out to get it done! #camelbackmountain #camelbackculture #humabeing #metalheadrunner #plantbasedrunner #ultrarunner (at Camelback Mountain) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1CN9q3HNnP/?igshid=1dhyxkdwwoeow

The salt stains clearly show the elevation map and the point when aliens came down and visited me. #phx50k #ultrarunning #saltstains #sweatstainsaresexy (at Phoenix Mountain Preserve) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1B5VkLH2xs/?igshid=1653cggdf34f0

Last bit of climbing before next weeks #phx50k ! I met up with a few others along the trail and spent some time at the bottom chatting as well. I love Camelback Mountain regardless of others complaining. There’s so many amazing people in that mountain enjoying the adventure. #camelbackculture #camelbackmountain #runsteepgethigh #intothetrainingpit #metalheadrunner #humabeing #heattraining (at Camelback Mountain) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0wvX7-nWLl/?igshid=gjtkt8jhbac8

We ran the first half of the upcoming #phx50k and it was punishing. I can see why only 2 people have ever finished this. It’s like #badwater135 and #barkleymarathons have a child who’s totally fucking out of control! #trailrunning #humabeing #intothetrainingpit #metalheadrunner #plantbasedrunner #heattraining #desertrunner #runsteepgethigh #ultrarunner (at Phoenix Mountain Preserve) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0uETc2Hokl/?igshid=12nzxtygs7ox3

Took a ride on the Struggle Bus this afternoon. I just couldn’t get my body to relax or my legs to move as they were tight. Some days you’re feeling fast and fresh and some days you’re dead, buried, and rotting. 💀. At least I had @psynationradio with my all time favorite PsyTrance producer, @burn_in_noise to make things better! It’s the little things that I love and appreciate even when the heat is brutal in The desert 🌵 . . #phx50k #intothetrainingpit #metalheadrunner #psytrancer #scottsdalegreenbeltrunningpath #scottsdalerunner #humabeing #shineonforshelby (at Scottsdale Greenbelt) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0XG8EZnsV5/?igshid=156miy5l2dkdj
