Twice up and down Mt. Diablo (3849 ft)! The first loop was fantastic:
shady at the bottom, and a nice cool breeze near the top. We finished the
first loop feeling great in just over 3 hours. But by then the day had
heated up considerably, and the second loop was quite toasty. Our second
loop was more than half an hour slower than our first loop. But still, we
enjoyed the beautiful views, and we were very glad to make it to the top
of Mt. Diablo the right way (last year we had driven almost all the way to
the top). Mt. Diablo is similar to Mt. Washington (in NH) and Whiteface
(in the Adks in NY) in that there is a road to the top, and an observation
tower, plumbing, gift shop, etc. So there are a lot of tourists in their
pristine white clothes wondering what in the world these sweaty, dusty,
dirty, sunburnt folks with the race numbers are doing on their clean
mountain. But we enjoyed the look on one woman's face when she asked if
we had biked up, and we replied "No, we ran up -- TWICE!" It was a great
day overall, and our time was good enough for first place woman again (out
of a small number of women). So we got another first place finisher's bag
for Daniel as well, since he plays the crucial role of pacer & moral
supporter.
