From Chautauqua
Up 3rd Access/NE/Greenman
Down Greenman/NE/1st Access
4.14 miles/2,556 vertical/1:02:09 RT (39:37 up/22:32 down)/avg HR 171 Garmin Data
Felt like getting after it a bit today and pushed hard most of the way, up and down. My legs and lungs cooperated and the only times I backed off a bit where where the terrain was really rugged going up and I was on all fours or avoiding tree branches and deadfall.
I felt fast and coordinated on the descent and I was pushing hard to get back to Chautauqua for a RT in under an hour, something I have always tried to do, but the closest I have come has been a 1:01:?? on at least 2 different routes. Toward the end, I sprinted hard to at least have my watch read 1:01 something, but alas finished at 1:02:09. Not bad considering the convoluted and technical nature of just about the entire route and I was quite pleased with how I felt, especially my speed and coordination on the technical downhill.
