A Small Adjustment

Well, my 20th birthday has come and gone, unfortunately before my 20th peak was climbed. When I initially challenged myself to climb 20 14ers before my 20th birthday, it seemed monumental. A hefty goal, worthy of all my attention, and significant in my humble summer life. The mountains, along with my training for the Triple Crown, gave me a much-needed purpose in an otherwise slow few months. I let these personal challenges consume me, and regarded them with the utmost importance. I did my lab…See More

"4Teenin'  -  17 summits is nothin' to sneeze at Phoebe. I'm going to go out on a limb and wager that you'll have 54 before you're 54  :)   In fact by then you'll probably have the Centennial peaks…"

"Thank you! A friend of mine surprised me by visiting from DC for my birthday last week, and the weather of course decided to stop cooperating, so I only got to 17... 17 before 20 doesn't quite have the same ring to it, but I'm alright with…"

"I saw you fussing with your shoes a couple of times, thought it was a lace problem. No doubt running the GOG course 3 times prior really helped me as you do know what you're in for. That Missouri Gulch is one of my all time favorite…"

A beginner's guide to the Triple Crown

Up until now, my blog posts could be collected and aptly titled "How Not to Train for the Triple Crown," but with the Garden 10-mile under my belt, I'm ready to start really preparing for the Summer Roundup and Ascent. First, though, one more Triple Crown Don't: Don't decide the morning of the 10-miler to wear a pair of shoes you've worn twice and have never run in (I'm sure all you runners are wincing at my naivete right now). Black/non-existent toenails are not a great summer look.What's done…See More

"Pheobe, my dear, you are a most awesome person, and I don't think your mother , or most anyone for that matter(your mom has been my friend since we were17, by the way), could even begin to go on the ultra-marathon route you are taking in your…"

For better or worse...

I just read Jon's (PikesPeakSports.us Triple Crown Team member) most recent post. This last part really stuck out: "Anyhow, looking forward to the Garden.  I just ended a 30 day period which saw me cover two marathons, two 14ers, a 50K, and two 50 milers, so it will be nice to have a short distance weekend.  I think I have a decent shot at a sub 70.".......... I think I can officially say I am incredibly intimidated by the other runners I'm going to encounter tomorrow. I just ended a 30 day…See More

Bill Beagle commented on Phoebe Blessing's blog post 20 before 20
"No need to apologize for a goal like that Phoebe, the 14'ers are in my blood as well. Just be careful out there and remember the words of world-class climber Ed Viesturs: "Summiting is optional, getting down is mandatory." Damn those…"

20 before 20

The CC class of 2014 (my class) adopted the class motto "Damn, those fourteeners are high!" this year, and though the intended implication doesn't really resonate with me, it did help to inspire a new goal of mine for this summer. I turn 20 in just under a month, and have decided that I want to have climbed 20 of the Colorado fourteeners before then. I'm a little ashamed to say that, in all my years living here, I've only done 10 of them. This summer is fast becoming the most ambitious of my…See More

"One of my great memories of Telluride is camping there and walking downtown on a Monday evening to hang out and watch the Broncos game. The September chill in the air reminded you that winter was quickly coming to the high country. They had Tom…"

"Katie - I recently let a friend persuade me to do Imogene this year, so I'll see you there!  And Jon, I definitely will not be seeing you there for Hardrock, though Blues & Brews is right up my alley... "
