On October 18, Drew ran back and forth across the Grand Canyon 4 times (R2R2R2R2R).  It was his third try, so he learned some things!  Which he shares with you ..."They start turning off the water when the weather gets cold. So there's a narrow window when most people try this. I did the first R2R2R at night, so the warm sun made starting the second lap easier." This route was 83 miles, with 22,000' of vert.  And unlike running in the mountains, to finish it off, you have to run almost 5,000' back UP!"Your quads must be preserved. The "box" is good running, so you'll lose big chunks of time if you're already beat up by then."Drew loves the Grand Canyon, and it shows.  Even though it's not always easy, as he describes one trail in the western section:"You can hardly see the trail. My lower legs were shredded. If I were to do that route again, I'd put KT Tape all over my shins in advance."This Episode Sponsored by Rabbit:The free-spirited California brand dedicated to all things running.Drew used their cool-weather kit for his night-time start, and their super-light gear for the rest of his FKT - check it out here.Subscribe to their email list (bottom of page) to stay in the know for new gear drops and sales, and get 10% off your first order.
