Hang Nine: Tuesday 28JUL2015
http://georgezack.blogspot.com/2015/07/tuesday-28jul2015.html
Tuesday, July 28, 2015. Life is short: I just heard via FB that Tara Breed passed away in a mountaineering accident on Sunday (I am not sure this is it, but I suspect this is what happened. I just saw her when I visited Mackey a few weeks ago. Damn. AM – 5.3 miles, easy to start, with the HS kids. A good chunk of those kids are up at XC camp with Coach Greg (including KZ). A good chunk are down here doing some basic running (including JZ). Interesting video blog by Tim L. Where I shop for fat shoes.

Running In Circles: No Rain... No Rainbows...
http://bdtu.blogspot.com/2015/05/no-rain-no-rainbows.html
Sunday, May 3, 2015. No Rain. No Rainbows. A surprise rainbow Saturday night when I took Asia out. No Rain. No Rainbows. which is all fine and good unless it rains all the damned time in which case you are just screwed. and wet… and not in the happy fun way either. Lots of rain here this week if you haven’t figure that out yet. I need to embrace the bike. It kept me healthy for two years. So maybe now riding is more mandatory than optional if I am wanting to stay "in the game.". But in my defense, the co...

Hang Nine: Monday 03AUG2015
http://georgezack.blogspot.com/2015/08/monday-03aug2015.html
Monday, August 3, 2015. Finished last week with 74.6 miles, 10.5 hours and 6130 feet. I expect to start to keep a fair volume this week, but that it will drop a bit as we head into the weekend. The next two weeks will then be to start to unravel in terms of load ( like this guy. Afternoon – today’s run included a.) an oil change, b.) 8 miles at a recovery effort c.) a 45 minute chat with my pacer from Winfield to Twin or d.) all of the above.

Hang Nine: Saturday 01AUG 2015 LT100 Recon
http://georgezack.blogspot.com/2015/08/saturday-01aug-2015-lt100-recon.html
Saturday, August 1, 2015. Saturday 01AUG 2015 LT100 Recon. Friday night I drove up to Bob’s amazing base camp just outside of Leadville. It gave me a great place to operate from for the weekend: good company that would give me incredible insights on the course and race execution, an excellent place to sleep and eat, and a place I could launch from to the Gold Rush days event that was hosting the second race in the Triple Crown Pack Burro Racing series. Of course, it does level a bit and then gets rolling.

Running In Circles: April 2015
http://bdtu.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 19, 2015. Somehow Kept It Together This Week. This was to be a 70 mile week with two days off. Really not that big of a deal but the weather. the @#$#@! Weather had other ideas. Tuesday was nice enough and actually the nicest day of the week. 10.5 mile run in 1:22:33. All in all it felt pretty good. Sunday was actually nice. Lots of snow but nice. I was joined by a runner who was not officially here and we had a lot of fun just out exploring more than just running. Super slow ru...I really ...
