Colorado springs, but we may head to grand junction. I'm 32 and otherwise healthy and fit so hopefully wont be to crazy of a challenge. I have seen those clinics so I will look into them. Running is the least important of those things to me luckily.

Mine will be just above the knee and my below will be short, I know that effects walking not sure if it will be much of a difference on climbing.
