Ok, 28 degrees on this brisk February . . . err . . . April morning.  The sky was clear and the conditions were actually pretty nice, so I won't complain.  I still feel a little bit of soreness in the quads from Saturday's race, enough to deter speedwork or a tempo run, but not enough to stay home.

I ran from home over to TITP and did a little meandering through a couple of trails before heading over to the St. Mary's hood and the golf course loop.  On the return, I headed back into the farflung reaches of TITP, with observation stops at the Original TITP monument (a smallish white obelisk built in 1921, see photo below), the pioneer cemetery, pond, Smith adobe, etc.  Lots to see. Then more easy running to get home.

While I was in SLC the other day I was just looking up at kind of the area you run in. Do you mostly have a lot of hills or is just me? I didn't see too many flat places for you to run in up around that area.

Lots of hills. From my house, most of my runs are up on the way out, with some downhill on the return. Not many flat runs on the foothill bench. We have some flat routes in town that require a little driving, though.
