I RAN 6 miles on the trails today- haven't done that in a while!

5 mile run with TE; we got absolutely drenched- usually not a big deal, but it was only in the upper 40's- so brrrrrr!

15 miles and 1700 feet on the bike.

4 miles fairly easy hike with 35 lbs. stretching.

Then to gym upper body

deadlifts/overhead press 5/3/1+/10; lunges 3x25 yds, chinups 3x10, core

22 miles (and 4000' of gain) for Friday and Saturday. Hiked into a high mountain lake, but the trout were not cooperating this time.

Wendler week 4 (recovery week)

squats/bench 5//5/5; pull-ups 3x10, dips 3x25, core

Glenwood?

close Hidden, still looking for a good way into Glenwood; is there one? Doesn’t look good coming from the top near Crow Peak and looks pretty marshy coming in from below???

I've not been into Glenwood, but I have a couple friends that I think have. I'll ask around and let you know if I find anything out.

that would be much appreciated Sir I’ve looked down on it at least a dozen times, but still haven’t been to it; I can at least cross Hidden Lake off the list now

that's a good haul. Weird no trout. Ive been doing fairly well on hike in lakes. around 6000 ft

Squats 5x5 , core, some kettle bells and 10 miles on mountain bike

yeah we never saw a single trout rise or jump, never saw any cruising by; they do stock it with cutthroat about every three years; my one thought is that they may have froze out- happens occasionally with high lakes; other possibility is it's a pretty decent sized lake and we certainly didn't cover it all, so maybe they were hanging out in a more productive area

Mike-

Here is what I have so far. My friend said he's gone in for day trips several times and went in from the Tizer basin. I asked if it was marshy, and he replied, no not marshy. They took an old road by the Ranger station on dirt bikes and got a bunch of elevation before hiking. Can't remember exactly where but was going to check with another friend.

The torture room has officially gone green....

Front and back squats, Romanian deadlifts, BP, curls, standing press.....

6 mile run yesterday, then a 4 mile hike with a 60lb pack today. Think I might have started with too much weight, because it kind of kicked my ass

Thanks Ed- if it's not marshy, that looks like the best was to approach the lake- too steep coming from above

three days with the grandkids at Indian Flats cabin, got a bunch of hiking in- Refrigerator Canyon, Hogback Mtn, Grouse Ridge and Trout Ck Canyon- 16 miles in all; they'll sleep good tonight!

Finished up our annual maintenance shutdown at work, first day off in 14 and most were 12hr. Anyway lost about 5 lbs this week and averaged around 4.5 miles a day. Plan to ease back into workouts this week.

mtwarden - cool pix as usual

We were up at Rocky Mtn National Park last weekend, got one hike in but they have a reservation system now, can't get in without a reservation and most of the time slots were sold out.

Other than that, been hitting the gym.
