El Bandito

El Bandito 70k report from July 2018....


Just so we are clear....me and 60k or more that involves Ganaraksa Forest is not a good time.
Not counting injury from a crash 4 months ago this was simply a training event to simply do the 70k distance. No hurry no rush who cares about the time. And to simply get one 60k plus event in involving the Ganaraska that wasn't an exercise in extreme mental toughness.



End result...despite one leg cramp on Thertell Rd...the first hill after Cold Springs Camp Road. No other issues of pain, cramping, or what not. Got in one event involving Ganaraska that wasn't looking for a new level of suck.

Drank beer, ate food, heckled Barry,. And then feats of strength with Dan to tear down....apparently carrying 70 pound steel bollards for 200m x5 is a good idea at the end of the day.

Happy that got 70k involving Ganaraska that wasn't a fight. No...I have no interest in further pushing my chances at that distance in the Ganaraska area again.
Besides sticking to 40k will get one to the cold beer sooner.
