| Location: Salt Lake City,UT,USA Member Since: Dec 29, 2009 Gender: Female Goal Type: Other Running Accomplishments: I was a much better runner in my 20's and 30's. When I was 52 I had a 28.5 5K and a 58.5 10K, and I would like to surpass those times. Long-Term Running Goals: Run a 1/2 marathon. I would actually love to run a full marathon, but am not sure if my body would break down with injuries training for one. Update fall 2010: still no 1/2 marathon, but I did run all the way up city creek and back home (14 miles) - absolutely gorgeous!! Personal: My name is Adele Kimbrough - I'm 58 and have been running (off and on) since I was 16. My body is not well designed for speed, and I'm a bit arthritic, but I'm having fun trying to figure out just how fast I can be. And this blog helps!

| Evening run to the city creek gate and back. I felt fairly energetic and ran at a good pace, pushing it on the hill up to the city creek gate, and again on the hills back to 11th and 12th avenues. It was nice to run in the coolness of the evening. | |

| 8 am. Ran at an easy pace, and went a little past the one mile marker in city creek canyon and back. My muscles were just a titch sore and tight today. | |

7:55 am. Went up to picnic area 7 in city creek canyon and back home. Nice and cool this morning, with the air spicy sweet after last night's thunderstorms!
The fire authority started clear cutting up in city creek canyon this morning. They want to cut a 100 foot wide fire break all along the road on the northwest side, and remove all canopy from overhanging the road. A lot of people (including me) squawked about their plans last year, so they delayed it a year and are now doing 3 "test" sections that people can comment on. They (the authoritys) say they want a fire break to protect any people up in the canyon in case a fire breaks out. But, they don't seem to realize people go up into city creek canyon to get into the cool shade, and if they remove the cool shade, it will really detract from the niceness! Go figure - it is a political thing I'm sure. "they paved paradise, and put up a parking lot . . . put all the trees in a tree museum and charged the people a dollar and a half just to see them . . . don't it always seem to go, that you don't know what you've got, 'till it's gone . . . "
Sad day for sure. | |

| Slow easy run to city creek, then about 3.25 miles up the canyon to where the road narrows, then back home. I hadn't ran that far up city creek canyon in quite a while - it was very nice, and the air smelled so sweet! :) | |
