Here we go

Wow, it's been a really really long time since the last update. But finally there is something to report.

We are leaving for our first 100-miler of the season this Friday. Well, it will be first one for me and Max, but not the first one for Harlan, who looks like will be driving up with us, and had done the Cohutta 100 already.

Well, i'll have to report later how I did, but I do not have high hopes. The legs don't feel strong, the endurance isn't there... Why do I think I can do 100 miles with 11,000 feet elevation gain, when I'm completely beat after a 26 mile loop of Wiss with only about 5,000 gain?!?! Oh the pain...

The only hope it to gear down to 32X20 from my normal 32X18...
