After a summer of mostly talus hiking, scrambling & climbing, I needed to practice running. This loop is majestic. Classic CO alpine trail running. Trail running is a funny thing. Very different from what I’ve been doing. I wanted desperately to go scramble up Lone Eagle to Iroquois, but I stuck to the plan of being a runner. 

Pushed the climbs today, steady on the downhills. First two climbs were super fun, but all the way up Pawnee Pass my neuromas were burning like aaarrrgghhh😩😩. Stopped three times to let them breathe, fully taking both of my shoes off and stretching the toes, twice before the Carter Lake turn-off, once after. Which was a bummer, woulda been nice to go sub-1:30 on that looonng boi hill. ~4-5min lost there. Thankfully, they gradually improved on the Pawnee descent and weren’t really a problem the rest of the run. This happens sometimes, especially with newer shoes on long uphills. Trail was super crowded below Lake Izzy at the end. Lotsa dogs, too.

Sourdough out and back at the end to round out 40mi/7hr. 1600cal total today, probably a little lean on water, maybe 3-4L total. Absolutely stunning beauty of a day. Fall up there. 😌😌
