Leaving 3 Points 

Out of Sulfur Springs 

3 Points with a bit more snow than in July

The first tripple digit week of the year went well! This is not where I thought I would be in January, but this year has shown me how many ways a body can break. It's definitely given me some perspective, and also reminded me about the basics of my mechanics and cross training (and how important they are). I feel confident about going through Leona, and moving into high climbing totals again without the threat of more injury. I have an equation with my diet, gear, cross training, and feel right about those 30,000ft weeks.
