FKT: Joseph DeMoor - Capitol Peak (CO) - 2020-08-14

1:56:30 to the summit 

3:25:55 RT starting and finishing at the wooden sign by the start of the ditch trail

I attempted this FKT twice in 2019 but came up short, was happy with the effort today. I felt under control and smooth for just about all of the run. I did take a few tumbles on the descent but nothing too serious, and not on “no fall” sections aka knife edge area and around the summit. This is the closest 14er to our home and one that I’ve really enjoyed exploring over the years. 
 

I appreciated the cheers and funny comments from fellow climbers. “What the f*** are you on?” “Are you f******* serious man?” 
Shoutout to Gnarly Nutrition out of Salt Lake-that was what I was on.
