Francois, I need El Paso advice

I can’t recall when your training camp is; you might be pretty busy right now. So don’t feel bad if you can’t respond by Thursday.

I’m driving in from Corrales NM to El Paso June 10, 11, and 12 for the reunion of my 1960 gradating class from Burges High. Other than an occasional road race there during the past 30 years or so (most recently the TransMountain 20K a few years ago), I usually run in the Franklins starting along Scenic Drive. That would seem to be a good idea again since I’m trying to peak in August at the LaLuz Race ascending the Sandias in Albuquerque But I thought I’d seek advice from you and any other EPST types to see if any of you had any suggestions for interesting variations from my usual run to the towers. Anything 5-10 miles or so might fit my time demands and training schedule.

Watch for my Element at Chico’s Tacos that weekend. Chances are you’ll see it there two or three times. Recovery meals, you know?

yeah, been super busy resting and posting all day on slowtwitch :wink:
camp starts sept 12.

if you drive down to the upper valley (take mesa north, it becomes country club and park for instance at river run plaza), you can run on nice trails along the rio grande. flat though. but these are fun runs and the cycle path along the RG has every quarter miles indicated.
