#trailrunning — Public Fediverse posts

An intriguing read. Invites one to test the strength of one’s own arguments.

❝A sport that bans a non-enhancing substance on values grounds while permitting an enhancement of greater magnitude on cultural grounds isn’t defending principle. It’s defending preferences and calling them values.

Had a great afternoon recently giving massage to the crazy runners at this year's Veinte Leguas Alpujarra event.

A full on ultra trail running event held yearly in the #Alpujarras. You can choose how long you run for. Starting at 10km for 1 leg. Or do the full 20 running a phenomenal 106km with over 5000 metres of elevation 😅 No wonder some of the runners came in barely able to walk!

The old fans of Tour de France among us, will know this bit of road as the real route up the Tourmalet. They have been using the new bit, that Paddy is looking down upon, for at least 15 years. For some reason cyclist wants to use the new road. They are missing out on some of the best parts of the Tourmalet and get to cycle in nostalgia, back when it was real bikes, no electric shifting or carbon. I fast hiked this bit and then tried to be faster on the downhill on the other side of the valley. To be very humbled when a runner just zoomed past, barely had time to reply to his nod before he disappeared into the distance.

This #LongRunSunday I'm back to #Snoqualmie Valley Trail, but starting from Carnation southbound and ran a half marathon: 6.6mi up and 6.6mi down, but walking the last mile for recovery. Pace: 10'27”/mi up and 9’09”/mi down.

This is the longest distance I've run in the past couple months due to injury. VO2max finally started climbing back a little to 46.4.

So we went for a 100k ride with the teens, using rent gravel bikes.

We had some experience with spending a day on the saddle (notably a "100k for the climate" last year with our heavy travel bikes)

The experience turned short rapidly, at k15 we were suffering from heat, and teen #2 got almost blind from allergies,
and we forgot his medecines...

We managed to ride back to starting train station. Now safely back home. We did 25k.

tried running a route I’d never walked in a park I’d never heard of, Huddart in Woodside up to Skyline Blvd. above my level for sure, ended up hiking most of the way uphill but some pretty spectacular downhill time through the redwood forest. #trailrunning #sfba

Long-run-saturday. Challenge today was surviving the rising temperature so the mission was to take the shadow paths, drink at least every 3k (water with extra electrolytes) and run at moderate speed (6.10-6.30/km). Managed to do 15k.

Yesterday’s trail run in the Bavarian Prealps. Took a break by the cows on the alpine pasture and watched the sunset.

Barefoot morning walk on the beach and through some dunes.
Sunrise and birdsong: just a perfect morning.

And a chat with a man jogging with his dogs, about trailrunning and the fun of just being outside.

Good morning!
I had an easy run at sunrise with a short dip in the sea mixed in. Legs are still heavy, but no pain. The water was cold.
