Another easy day before a big weekend + Dinner delivered from 1000 miles away
Easy 40 minutes through the foothills, with just enough climbing and rocky single-track to call it a trail run. With big days planned up in the high mountains tomorrow and the next day I wanted to make sure I didn’t tire myself out too much.

And it is push-ups day. I’ve gotten through 6 of the 8 sets (8 X 60 reps with mixed grips whenever I can fit them into the day is my routine) and will have to gut out the last 120 reps before I get too tired. I’m finding that both push-ups and pull-ups are getting harder with the thin air and increased running. But, as a great man (the greatest?) once said:
Al and the kids got some time out today at Amante for a walk and coffee. And tonight is My Pie night – genuine Chicago deep dish shipped across country for our dining bliss. $33 for a pizza seems like a lot but per mile traveled to reach our table, I’d say it is a great deal.
