Thursday, 11/11/10 Green Mountain

Got out for a great run today up Green Mountain in the snow.  Met up with Dave, Brandon, Dave's friend Nicolas (Mermoud, 3rd at UTMB a few years ago/co-founder of Hoka shoes), Geoff and Joe (Grant) at Chautauqua and headed up Gregory, where we eventually met up with Tony and a photographer/videographer, as they were doing some filming for a running magazine.  They joined us to the top of Green, where we spent a while socializing.  Dave, Geoff and Nicolas headed over to Bear/S. Boulder, while Tony, Joe, Brandon and I all had to get back, so we opted for Bear Canyon.  It was so much fun getting out on a snowy day with a great group.  I felt like I was sucking wind a bit, I think having a bit of trouble getting used to the new and slippery running surface, as it seems to take a bit more out of you (not to mention running with such an elite crowd).
