Day 33

Last final climb in the Rockies.

Last final climb in the Rockies.

July 13, 1978
Miles run – 44.0
Weather – 77 degrees

Comments: “Climbed the longest continuous ascending road in the US today – 13,000 feet high! That’s like one Mt. Washington on top of another! But, I survived and got out of it without too much trouble – I surprised myself by running 44 miles today – the altitude wasn’t too bad. Rockies are GONE!!”

Leaving the Rockies with my support crew – arm in arm.
