TransRockies Run 2009

Helen is off at TransRockies run this week. In a nutshell, she and her teammate will be running 110 mi of mountainous terrain from Buena Vista to Beaver Creek. Her teammate for The North Face team is Dean Karnazes, a very well known and self-promoting runner who's been on the cover of Sports Illustrated, Outside, Runner's World and others. Helen told me he's not doing so well with the altitude. She waits for him on the big climbs, but he can run fast on the downhills. Helen seems a bit frustrated as she wants to be more competitive. Oh well, they're just going to try and have fun with it all at this point.
