Trail running in Colorado: Arron goes West part 1 - Grit #14 from Gearist

In training for the 2022 Leadville Trail 100, our boy Arron needed to escape from his seaside, zero elevation home in Virginia Beach and head west to Colorado. While there, he and Brandon hit some great trails in and around Boulder County winding up as high as 12,000 feet.

In part one of two, Brandon and Arron talk about some of the adventures on this trip and also look at new gear from Zealios, 100% sunglasses and an awesome bodysurfing toy from WAW Handplanes.
