Josh and I drove up to Foothill Sbux and met up with a big group of runners for a 5:30 am start. Most of the group ran an 8 mile loop. After circling back to Foothill, Josh, Lisa and I headed up Emigration Canyon with a few of Lisa's friends. We ran up just past the Sun and Moon Cafe, nearly to the turnaround at Pinecrest. We took it very easy the whole run and there were many stops along the way. On the way down the canyon, the pace got mildly spicy, but we never cracked 6:30 pace for very long. We had a few surges in there which felt good, but that was about it. Overall, Josh, Lisa and I all finished feeling pretty good and no worse for the wear after this run. |
