This was the weekend of the Iron Horse bicycle race from Durango to Silverton, which I did not do. (We went out in the morning to watch the mass start, though - about a dozen of our friends were racing.)

Instead I raced the Narrow Gauge 10-mile run, which was a loop around town and up the mesa to the college (steeeeep!), around the campus, and then down again. My time was 1:30:34, just over 9 minute miles which is what I was aiming for. Not a very good time in the scheme of things, though - runners around here are serious! Put me about in the middle of all women's times. I was mostly running 8:50 miles, but the uphill killed me. Whew. Gorgeous day, partly cloudy and breezy, really nice for running.

But it is a 'yay, hooray, I have done this awesome thing' or is a 'thank god, I am done with this horrible thing'?

What an excellent time for super-steep hills! You look properly exhilarated. I hope you got some nice post-race goodies.

Free pint of beer is the best one. And chocolate chip cookies - really yummy ones.

Whoo! Go go go! I suck at running, though I'm one hell of a distance walker.

Good for you! Pulling nines in Durango, especially that long and on a course with that hill at the end, is doing well.

I want to do something where I get to have a look like that when I'm done.
