		<title>Tudo bom!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I returned from another fun week in Brazil. After a few things learned from last year, Joan wanted to give another try at the Brazil 135 ultramarathon, this time with the aim of finishing it under 40 hours. But first, I traveled in advance to São Paulo, to spend a few days touring the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Let the year go</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This time I won&#8217;t write a brief recap of the year, however, during the last couple of days I&#8217;ve been reflecting on the bunch of things that happened. Just like every other year, 2011 was packed with a lot of good things: travel, races, mountains, family, new and old friends, work, concerts, training&#8230; the list [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rounding up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Many years ago, the course for the Skymarathon Iztaccíhuatl followed the normal mountaineering route up to the summit of the mountain. That lasted for only a year or two, because the logistics of having some sort of checkpoint at 5,230 meters were too difficult, but also due to many safety reasons for the amount of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Night Of The Living Death</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yeah, what a better way for closing up a stacked year of concerts than attending a gig by the great and brutal Cannibal Corpse? This was at a festival dubbed The Night Of The Living Dead, and there were 2 other bands (who really sucked ass by-the-way, excuse my French&#8230;): The Black Dahlia Murder and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Virtuoso jam</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Octavio and I attended another great concert last night. This time it was the turn for Dream Theater, who are already veterans at Mexican stages. The opening act was done by Andy McKee, a fingerstyle guitarist that I haven&#8217;t heard before but who immediately caught me with his playing. It&#8217;s always amazing to see the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Racing hard</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Had a super fun Sunday running from the town of San Rafael up to Chalchoapan hut in Iztaccíhuatl, at the race now dubbed Izta 4000 (formerly El Doblete). It was my first race after a couple of months of recovery and all I can say is that I really felt good. A was a little [...]]]></description>

		<title>High altitude fun</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Had a super fun weekend with Armando while guiding a couple of friends at Pico de Orizaba. We spent 2 days in the mountain, the first one for acclimatizing and hiking a little, the second one for the summit push. For Sofía it was her first mountaineering adventure, whereas Jaime had some decent experience from [...]]]></description>

		<title>Given To Fly</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s not the first time that Pearl Jam plays a gig in Mexico City, but this was my first time seeing them and, according to many people, last night&#8217;s concert was the best they have given here. Their current tour celebrates the first 20 years of the band&#8217;s career. Even though we bought the cheapest [...]]]></description>

		<title>Clarity?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Tough days lately, lifewise. Strange things going on. Lots of revelations. Difficult decisions. Forced detachment. Depression. Only hoping to reach the real bottom of this and get out of it soon&#8230; Clarity is coming along in a really unexpected and painful way. Better things are looming ahead as long as I can make peace with [...]]]></description>

		<title>Already a decade</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It would be easy to underestimate but, 10 years really is a lot of time&#8230; This is the amount of time we have had the privilege to enjoy the amazing Banff Mountain Film Festival in Mexico, due to the great effort from my friends from El Séptimo Grado. I&#8217;ve been fortunate enough to attend each [...]]]></description>
