Finally decided to submit this one - should bring some traction back to Tammany this spring!
April 25th, 2023 at 6:18pm I set off to get a nice workout on Tammany, did a 10 min tempo up, tied my shoes, stopped to take a picture of the beautiful night, then did another 10 min push to the summit. Had to push past a large group sitting on the rocks in the middle of the trail and two boys that tried to race me, one tripped and fell. Felt good and decided to push on the ridge again for another 5 minutes. On the blue descent looked at my watch and legs felt good so decided to send it. I really love the downhills and decided to just push it and see if I could get a sub-40. I never run single tams, always do multiple efforts, so had a blast really sending this downhill. By the time I hit the bridge and the finish, I looked at watch and laughed, I couldn't believe I got it. I had a belly full of red lentil curry and rice (that was enjoying the push uphill) and carried nothing but my phone.
