On the first day of my summer vacation...

One day rest after our Mt. Washington experience and Tracy and I are at it again (by rest I mean that we spend 5 hours in the car and 2 hours in town walking around). Monday we had a nice 5.7 mile run along the carriage roads (packed gravel, no cars allowed) followed by a brutal 5 mile hike. The weather and trail conditions were perfect and we wound up summiting 3 differrent mountains in 1 hike. We came home after that and got drunk at dinner at an amazing vegitarian restaurant (I am slowly transforming Tracy).

On Tuesday we did another 5.5 mile run on the carriage roads (different route) we were a bit tired from Monday so we had to walk a couple times. The route we chose was much hillier than we wanted. We followed that run with another brutal 11 mile hike where we summited another 3 mountains. We experienced flashbacks of our Mt Washington hike during most of the day as the weather consisted of high winds and thick fog. we covered the entire hike in a bit over 5 hours.

We had a total of 10 hours of traiing over the past 2 days. Vacation is sooooo much fun :-) !!!!!!!
