We played hard July 4 weekend
July 7, 2016: I ran in Kansas City this morning.
And it sucked. After the early storms, I was left with 90 percent humidity. My speed work did not go well, and I had to do it without Winston. But all weekend, the hooligan and I ran all the miles we wanted with lots of elevation gain. The air in Denver is so crisp, even in July. Even after a storm system had passed through.

As we approached the top, some strange, rude woman told me my shorts were cute but said I'd be cold. We felt the temperature drop as we climbed, but it was tolerable, especially when the sun escaped the clouds. We relaxed and ate a snack at Herman Lake. Our peak elevation was 12,020 feet.
