Bonanza Peak or Bust!

Well I am ready to head off to NV on Friday evening and to run up Bonanza Peak on Saturday morning. It is supposed to be 100 degrees on Saturday in the dessert and will likely be about 30 degrees lower when I reach the summit. I am excited! The more challenging a run is the more I get excited about and this one should be a nasty one with the heat, the climb and the altitude :-)

My legs seem in good shape again right now. I took Sunday off totally and only did strength work on Monday with stretching. I ran a brisk 6 miles on Tuesday and felt great during and afterwards so I'm hoping my soleus cramping is behind me.

Watch for another blog entry Saturday or Sunday night on the results of my first climb at altitude. Getting up to 10,400 feet will be a big change from running at sea level!
