[QUOTE="LRNut, post: 2186987, member: 3230"] I would say there are plenty of mountains steeper than the GC, esp Bright Angel trail. I used to use Merrill's a lot but if you walk over a lot of rocks, the soft sole kills your feet. Going steeply downhill kills your quads, esp with a heavy load of meat. Yesterday I went to paint my gongs; right now I have two at 720 and 910, not in a line. Once I got to the 910 gong, I climbed 800 vertical feet as fast as I could. I was breathing pretty hard by the time I got to the top. I am going to do that daily, rather than run every other day, at least while I am in CO. [/QUOTE]
