Incline overload
http://www.inclineclub.com/incline.htm
So over the last 3 weeks that I have been back in Colorado I have managed to drag myself up the incline 7 times and tomorrow will be the 8th. Talk about a tough hike. Just click on the link above and you will get an idea of the difficulty of this straight up hike. 1 mile straight up the Incline then 4 mile hike down the Barr Trail(much more forgiving) in Manitou Springs. I am quickly humbled on this hike everytime I attempt it. I take my hiking poles….aka vagina sticks, so that I do not totally destroy my knee’s on the downhill portion of the trail. I have been lucky enough to head out with the Tuesday Super Star Night twice and both times I think that I have been atleast 5 minutes behind the main group everytime…..Pro caliber huh? I think it is helping make me stronger?

Remember what someone told you about your knees? You are in our thought and prayers, daily.

Brad, what’s your time for the mile uphill? I did it ONCE and that was enough for me… Make sure you don’t overdo it or you will become a himalayan sherpa - I’d rather see you winning bike races!
