Hi friends!
This was a fun solo adventure through Rocky Mountain National Park that had some epic views along with some solitude with plenty of miles and plenty of elevation gain. Kind of a simple video, but thought I'd share the experience :) either way- I hope you enjoy.
I plan on uploading a week of training that showcases where I've been at with my training and some of the obstacles I've been working on overcoming- consider subscribing so you don't miss it! Thank you for watching and thank you for being here!
Next race: Never Summer 100K July 27th, 2024

See ya in my next adventure!

How gorgeous... WHY don't I live close to the mountains... that's some incredible training! The paragliding sounds awesome!

This was such a beautiful run! 20 miles is no joke you crushed it!

So many things in this video that I identify with - I get up early (3-4am) everyday and do my runs early as well, I always run solo, and people usually look at me like I’m crazy for running where they have a hard time walking (and I’m slow). That looked like a nice route. I bet it felt amazing to enjoy the morning there.

You're an absolute savage, keep it up! I did that loop last summer, it's one of my favorites. You should check out the High Lonesome Loop by Ned sometime too. Definitely wait for a good weather window though.

You’re too kind! And the high lonesome loop…oh my goodness it’s like a top 5 for me. I’m hoping one of these next few weekends to find myself out that way- I did it back in 2020 and it has so many beautiful features and sights it’s so amazing! Hope to see ya out there!!

Duuude, that route looks gorgeous. I’m sure it made those miles easier. I’m adding that to my list. Epic run and effort. Congrats!

a true trail runner, it's about the adventure. I get in a rut of repeating training trail runs too much on same routes, for logistic reasons. I should strive more to make it an adventure on new routes and terrains like what you seem to be doing. Great channel!

Thank you!! 😊the adventure is what it’s all about!!

this loop is on my list this summer, i think its called long peak valley loop! planning on tagging this with a friend in the next couple weeks. Was navigation pretty straight forward? i know RMNP is pretty good with signage.

@MountainHighLife 19 күн бұрын

I am so excited for you! It was so awesome- definitely hot the last 10k or so, but absolutely worth it. I did download the route onto my watch which just made navigating easier for me personally, but very straight forward for the most part!

That loop looks awesome! Did you make it up or did you find it on something like AllTrails? I did Twin Sisters last weekend (twice) and the looks and comments from the hikers who saw me on both trips were definitely amusing.

@MountainHighLife 19 күн бұрын

Running in Rocky is always fun for that reason 😂 but I use Trailrun project to find most of my trails then use people’s recent trail reports on AllTrails for trail conditions!! That’s awesome you were able to lap Twin sisters- amazing work!!

Love this! Can you link your sunglasses?

@MountainHighLife 10 күн бұрын

Absolutely! They have interchangeable lenses so one is for lowlight and the other for brighter days. And they look good on everyone :) www.pitviper.com/products/the-exec-try-hard?variant=40403355435102

What percentage would you say was hiking vs trail running on this one? I’m training for my first 50k and hike more these days than run.

@MountainHighLife 10 күн бұрын

This one, hmmm…maybe 65% hiking and 40% running? I’ll be honest, I’ve gotten very familiar with power hiking over the last month- especially with big climbs at altitude and for longer efforts and hoping with consistency and time I’ll see the ratio have a bit more running. Best of luck with your race!!
