  • 10.6 slow miles, to the top of City Creek and back, avg pace 10:31

I really needed to accomplish something like running to the top of City Creek today.  It makes everything wrong in the world right again. :)  It was slow, but it was so fun.  I love it when it's Saturday morning and an odd day of the week because then there's lots of people on the trail (thanks to the bikes).  I loved that there were only a few of us runners at the top and millions of bikers.  Take that!  It was gorgeous today with the blue sky above the green trees.  The creek is beautiful and it smells so yummy!

I love it when we hang with the 'cheaters'! (bikers). Nice work, I feel ya on the 'every wrong right again' - ONLY running does that for me!
