“Have you had a cat scan lately?”
“Huh?”
“I mean, are you ok in the head?”
Thus begins a conversation with a friend following my explanation of the TransRockies race I just completed. I guess you do have to be a little bit crazy to run 120 miles for fun.

For many running a peak is more than just exercise, me included. I deeply enjoy running up mountains, it adds more to a run than simply traveling from point a to b, it adds a destination, a purpose.
