July 11- July 17

 

“The proper function of man is to live, not exist.  I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them.  I shall use my time.”  — Jack London

Monday:  

6 PM:   Today was a complete day off and did not do a damn thing but work for the most part.  Still up at Don's in Fairplay but plan on leaving tomorrow for Ouray.  Did go to town for happy hour at the Stitching Lady (may have had a little bit to much) and grabbed dinner as well.



Tuesday:  

Morning:  Spent all morning driving from Fairplay to Ouray where I will spend the night tonight.  What should have been a 4 hour drive turned into a 5.5 hour drive due to the construction on HWY 50 outside of Gunnison (which was expected) and the lane closures between Montrose and Ouray (unexpected).  Oh well, made it in time for lunch and to work from the coffee shop all afternoon.

4 PM:  4.2 miles averaging 8:30 pace.  Easy cruise around Ouray hitting up the Riverside walk trail for some of it and dirt roads for the rest.  Super chill, was super stiff dude to all the driving today.   What is up with all the weird numbers in Ouray?  Speed limit signs, times businesses open and close, ect... there has to be a story why....





Wednesday:  
 
7 AM:   Drove up to Silverton to get check in for Hardrock.  Shit is getting super real now... fuck... Anyways a great day showing Paula around Silverton for she has never been here before.  




Thursday:

Noon: Pre-race meeting is over and now it is just a waiting game....  Decided to go ahead and publish this week through Thursday leaving the weekend as it's own post in the future sometime.
