It remains a busy spring for the Skid Row Running Club!
A big group of us just finished an epic bike ride from the Grand Canyon to Pasadena (6 days, 440 miles! Thanks, @speed_hound_endurance!) And we participated in the Blue Jean Mile event to support mental health awareness w/ @asics. Of course, we are still doing our Monday & Thursday runs, too!
Coming up soon, we've got the Griffith Park Trail Marathon Relay - @gptrailrelay (we're fielding 50 runners!) and the 1st Annual Full Moon Ultrarun in the San Gabriel Mountains (full!).
Wow. I'm exhausted just typing all this.
Come run with us every Monday and Thursday, 6am, in Downtown LA! DM for details!

Day 36: 2,457 total miles. This week was a grind across the state of Kansas. Lots of straight lines, country roads and corn fields! There were days with rain and nasty headwind but towards the end of the week the sun started to come out. I met some interesting people - including my barber Stan who has been in business for 60 years and a Dutch couple on a tandem bike who I ran into going the opposite way on a remote country road crossing the US from west to east. I crossed into Colorado on Friday and learned the hard way that Kansas roads don’t actually end until you get to Denver lol. My parents flew out to meet me on the road Saturday and my dad @jabouhamad will be riding with me for the next two days. It is nice to share miles with people! I shared a great meal with my dear friends @danwals12@benzacks87 in Denver last night but unfortunately do not have a photographic proof. It was a big week mileage wise but I’m feeling motivated heading into the Rockies today. This will be my first big test climbing with my bike setup. LFG.

Day 29 (Week 4+1)- 1,861 miles. After reaching St Louis (Missouri-9th state) Tuesday, I got on the Katy Trail- a 240 mile bike trail that follows the Missouri River going West. This was a welcome change after the farmland of Indiana and Illinois. I enjoyed camping along the river and in some small towns - including in the “Sheep Pavillion” at the MO State Fair grounds in Sedalia but was motivated to get to Kansas City (Kansas-10th State) where I knew I would be taking a rest day and staying with friends. After resting and eating a lot yesterday, I started crossing Kansas today. I am hoping to get to Colorado by the end of the week but it will be a grind! Let’s ride!!!
