Afternoon Ride

Summit Rock afterparty

Good conditions, mix of overcast, mist, and sun. Mostly dry trails. Strong and steady on the uphills, weak and achy on the downhills. 
Singletrack single-file out to Rodeo Beach. Forced to walk the uphills. Started spreading out. Started using my poles. Coastal and Miwok trails were pleasant, easy grade. Got swept into a fun singletrack train descending to Hwy 1. Approximately halfway in distance and elevation. My knees are already unhappy. Time to climb. Deer Park Rd. Getting hot. Bless the aid station. Reroute from Matt Davis to Dipsea for the downhill to Stinson. Pretty, but also ouch. Reroute from Steep Ravine to Dipsea for the uphill return to Cardiac. Too bad, those were two trails I haven't experienced yet. Stairs. The pace is dying. Turned on the tunes to sustain the final effort. Final downhill to Santos. Thankfully not too steep or technical. Not fast, but fast enough. Didn't see many other runners now. Finished! The reroutes ended up shortening the course by a few kms, but I came here to run a 50 km. Wandered around until I accumulated the missing mileage. Sub-6:00 hr! Just a bit shy of 2000 m elevation. As expected, a good, challenging race. 
Afterwards, into the ocean at Muir Beach. Then sauna at the SF climbing gym. 
Now it's time to take up roller skiing.
