      I love the deer mountain loop- 10 miles with great views but less crowds (featured in this video) Also chasm lake is a really beautiful hike to an epic basin. Mt. Ida is a great alpine mountain experience! My only suggestion is to avoid trails in the bear lake corridor for trail running as it’s a highly highly trafficked tourist area and you will constantly be running into people. Hope this helps and happy running!

    Quick question! Does your heart rate shoot up right from the beginning? I’m a roadie so on the roads it’s easy to keep your HR low and steady but when I start climbing right away my HR is always high from the beginning. Thanks

    • @MountainHighLife
      @MountainHighLife 11 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Hi! To give you the short answer- yes, if I start climbing out the gate, my HR will usually spike. The long answer: I’ve definitely had to modify how I approach a run that has climbing straight out the gate as it will effect my performance (mainly how my legs feel for the rest of the run). Depending on the grade, I give myself time to warm up and adjust and then will start running. A lot of times, I just have to tell my ego to be quiet 😂 but I would say pretty consistently that after the 20 minute mark, I’m pretty well warmed up and ready to push on the climbs. Hopefully this helps? Either way- thanks for the question and happy training!

    Looks like a nice place to run. I'm in a 50k training block which has back to back long'ish runs on Sat/Sun with Sat being "race pace" and Sunday being "easy". On Sun I'm always cursing my Sat self for pushing so hard and on Sat I'm always thinking how hard Sun will be because of what I just did. One thing that rings true for me though, I don't have to worry about pushing too hard on my Sun "easy" run because I usually don't have the energy to push.
