Heading over to Chattanooga this afternoon. Summer and I signed up for the stage race that starts tomorrow and runs through Sunday. 3 races, 3 mountains, 60 miles. Tomorrow we will run 22 miles over a tough course (Lookout Mtn). Very tough climbs and desents by the looks of the profile. Saturday is the easy day. 18 miles over much of the Scenic City Trail Marathon course (Racoon Mountain). Looks like an extra loop added to the course. Fairly flat as far as trail races are concerned. Sunday (if we're still alive and kicking) is 20 miles over another mountainous course over the Cumberland Trail on Signal Mtn. We'll take it one day at a time. Lots of ice baths and napping on the schedule after we finish each day:-)
Oh, and the Boogie didn't happen for me. Took an extra week of recovery instead. Enjoyed a pool party for my youngest daughter and 25 of her closest friends that night! They were celebrating the end of middle school. Sigh. My youngest is now a high school freshman. Will be a busy year next year with the older daughter being a senior and all that entails. I think we'll be visiting some college campuses this summer. She wants to stay in state so that will help with tuition costs.
I thought about doing this. How was it? Maybe next year.
