2011 Summer Race Results


2011 Summer Results

This summer I had a few Hill Climb running races highlighted on the 2011 calendar. Along with the Hill Climbs I entered one ½ Marathon and a Steeplechase race. The race schedule was a good mix of local events as well as a few outside of town races. Training consisted of mountain hiking, mountain walking, mountaineering, climbing, a few flat runs, some trail runs, road bike, and a lot of hill climbs.
Temperatures in Wyoming are starting to drop and the valley will soon be in bloom with the Fall colors on the trees. And not far behind, Winter will be arriving and bringing whiteness to the mountains. Skiing will be here soon. This summer has been preparation for the upcoming ski mountaineering race season.
