Cool! I'll probably start at Kinfolks and jog up ruxton. Can't slack off before the Ascent! :P If we miss each other somewhere, let's just start at the "no trespassing" sign on the incline...if anyone else wants to come feel free! 6pm! (40-45 min pacers only!! hehe)

I'll see you this Thursday at 6:00 p.m. at the bottom of the incline - I'll be the crazy person running from Memorial Park in Manitou up to meet you LOL

I hear the Barr Trail parking lot will be closed again on Mon/Tues, which means even more crowded parking than usual down below on those days. Rumor has it they are paving the lot, although I haven't read the postings at the trailhead, so I can't say for sure.

ok 6 :) Yes, bottom! I always come up from near ruxton past those new homes and up through the cog railway and start at the trail before any ties. :)

I'm good w/either time - If we do 5:30 I'll take off a few minutes early - pick a time and I'm there - meeting at the bottom of the incline I assume LOL

Cool! How about Thursday at 530 or 6?

I agree! If you were thinking this weekend I've got a double header tonight starting at 6 so tonights out for me, tomorrow morning I'm running course for Garden of the God so I could do it in the afternoon - Sunday might be good....OR I can do it after work one night - I'm off of work at 5 and next weekend is good anytime BUT Friday - softball again LOL...

hey! I say all of us 40-45min people get together and do the incline! I need people that are my pace, not my hubby who runs up 50 steps then waits for me!!! :(

Ok so who's doing the Incline this weekend and when...I'm doing it again so in case I'm dying on the side I just want to know someone will be there to help me LOL....Hoping to get back to my normal time of 40 or better yeah! Have a great Friday!
