Back to Biking
The Newport 10-mile loop is one of my favorites. After my race in Huntington Beach, I stopped by Mitsuwa for Japanese food, then did an easy ride in Newport. From 9/17/2023

Back to Running
I ran a bit slower this year. Since school started, I haven't been running consistently. Instead, I mountain biked a lot with friends. I still had a fun time, ran with wave 3 at an very easy pace. At the end, I was happy to see that each mile was faster for a solid negative split in one of my favorite races of the year. From 9/17/2023

Back to Mountain Biking #5
It was 10 degrees cooler than last week. Mr. Dukowsky and I rode the 8 mile route, going clockwise on the Claremont Loop. The new bike took me downhill fast and steady. From 9/15/2023

Trek Mountain Bike - Fuel EX 9.8 XT (Gen 5)
I have owned my previous Trek mountain bike since 2009. My friends have kept encouraging me to upgrade. For a number of reasons, I made the purchase on Labor Day. Near the end of my masters program at APU, I used getting a new bike as motivation to finish the degree. I wanted to get another Trek, the new generation (Gen 6) came out. While the new model may perform better, I like the Gen 5 frame more since it doesn't have an extra bracket under seat post. Additionally, a base model for the Gen 6 is only slightly cheaper than the high end model for the Gen 5. At Jax Bicycles in Fullerton, I found the best deal. It was less than half of the MSRP, and a thousand dollars below what the Jax at Claremont was charging. The guys at the Fullerton location were awesome as well. Looking forward to riding this as much as I can. From 9/4/23
