New Goal Time?
I'd be happy to hit 45 if i'm lucky with the amount of cardio i've done of the year...

Frequency?
This year and last year I havn't gone at all, the previous summer however I went at least 3 times a week with a maximum 5. I had gotten laid off, recently broke up with my ex, and it was a great way to pass the time with a couple friends while staying active in the summer.

Tips for the newbs?
As stated above, don't start out running our jogging. If you can set a steady consistent pace that you can keep up for the entire duration of the trail you're more likely to see better results than heading up a 1/4 as fast as you can and then taking a break or slowing down.


Have any of you guys seen the world records for the grouse grind? It's honestly retarded. I've raced DOWN the grouse grind many times (which I don't recommend as it's horrible on your knees), and my better times going down are the records going up. I honestly can't imagine someone scaling it as quickly as I am heading down.
