Description

Christmas Eve Run to the Thompson Peak

Elapsed Time: 56:23

When I started, it felt like it was not going to be a great run. However, I reminded myself that it would still be a good workout. Surprisingly, it turned out to be a record in Elapsed Time, though not in Moving Time, which was better on 2022-12-04.

Note

I began my run with a 48-hour Garmin Recovery Time. Sunday was incredibly busy, but taking a rest day yesterday definitely helped. During the run, my legs felt sluggish, and I tripped several times over stones.

On the way up, I crossed paths with three guys, and on the way down, I met four guys and one lady. It was surprisingly busy for a spot that is not very popular. The sun was out the entire time, though it was not as intense as during my summer run on 2024-08-24. Still, I managed to get a bit sunburned! :)
