26 Mile Run/Hike Cross Training


On April 14th I did a 26 mile run/Hike from Bolinas to the South End Rowing Club as one of my last long cross training events before my English Channel Swim in July. It took me over nine hours since I had some problems with my running shoes after mile 5. (I washed it in the washing machine and put it to dry on high heat and it shrunk). I had to finish the course walking for 20 miles. It was a long day!

My running partners were Tom Wilhelm who finished it in 4:18Hs (Garmin data above) and Tom Lithicum who finished in 5:45Hs. Running Pro, Dominic Spinetta, gave us a huge support driving us all the way to Bolinas.
