Question: I am moving to Colorado in a couple of months and would like to know the best way to adapt to the higher altitude. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Answer: Slowly. Cut your mileage & pace back ~ 25% - 50% for at least 4 - 6 weeks.

Think almost like coming back from an injury, but you're not injured.

If you have a HRM, use it.
