Swimming will really build up your cardio. Don’t neglect the weights, though.

Sure wish I could head to that part of the state. The San Juans are awesome.

Wolf Creek, Purgatory and maybe even a day at Telluride are in the works.

Already got my tail in the water, swimming about an hour a day with a masters swimming team. Hitting about 1,500 yards. It’s punishment, but hoping it will pay off when I’m not huffing and puffing in misery.
