Hello guys,

I live near Alum Rock State Park in East San Jose and am trying to find a training partner to get better at indoor rock climbing and trail running. I basically want to work out more consistently to improve strength and endurance. The rough training plan I have in mind is:

1. Climb at Planet Granite Sunnyvale 3 times a week in the morning.

2. Trail run in Alum Rock State Park 2-3 times a week in the morning or evening. There are multiple amazing trails with beautiful wildlife. My favorite trail starts at my home or Alum Rock Park Entrance to Sierra Open Space Preserve Parking Lot (~2000 ft elevation gain in 4-5 miles and usually takes me a little over 1 hour to reach the top). My wife usually picks me up from the Sierra Point after a run.

Some more info about me: 34 year old male, married and have a 2 year old daughter, electrical engineer, love mountaineering, woodworking and videography. https://www.youtube.com/user/gautamsingampalli

Great photos. I live in San Ramon and hate the 680 traffic. I would to climb/ venture with you on the weekends. 

BTW, Brent's a fun, hilarious partner in training. He inspired me to start a blog, which I still have to start. Too busy working and snowboarding.
