altitude SUCKS

[MSHardeman]

I'm with Velvis. If it ain't chasin' me, or I ain't chasin' it, I ain't worth it.

I'm sure it would be interesting to see if I could actually push myself that hard, but I don't know if I'll ever find out.

Billy, if you really want to do some training at altitude come on up to Aspen (7500 feet). I used to live in Telluride where biking and running was a lot of fun at 8700 feet. All of the trails started in town, and immediately went up 2000 feet. Not good for a boy from the swamps.

Thats the cool thing about being middle aged (I hope) & somewhat overweight...not much chases you anymore, you got not much reason to chase anything anymore & I KNOW for a fact I'll never push myself that hard...so that's one less thing to think about.
Sheesh...thanks for reminding me how good I've got it.
Billy, I wish you well & admire your physical abilities...but MAN, I'm glad I don't have the urge to enter one of those events.
