Providence Canyon trail  - 

Little faster this week up and down.  I had batteries for the headlamp.  Good thing cause it was dark for 5 of the 8 miles.  Fall is here...

Tabernacle - Temple - Canal trail - BST to random sign and back

Nice and easy pace today.  Watched a nice lightning show over by valley view highway.

Jardine Juniper sans tree but with an extra loop at the top.  11 miles - 

Joe and Mike both dogged me today so I was on my own.  Decided to start my taper tomorrow AFTER today's run.  Went pretty hard from the start.  27 mins to first saddle.  38:30 to start of loop.  First loop in 12 mins (1.5 miles), second in 12:12.  Finish last 4 (downhill) in 25:43.  I kept the uphill at 80-90% and the downhill at 75%.  Didn't want to wreck or tweak something.  I figure I have another 5 mins I could shave off.

Now I know this is not as fast as Jon's PR run but I like this version of the run better since 9.5 miles (Jon's version) is too short.  11 is better.  But since mine is now on Strava it's official.  Jon, you should add your FKT to Strava and we can compare.

Tomorrow begins my taper.  I am betting my flat run tomorrow will be 1-1.5 mins/mile slower than this run.

Met Nick McCombs at the Tabernacle and took him on a tour of the Canal Trail and BST.  Luckily it was dark and we were on a trail for most of it.  That kept the pace reasonable.  All except for the climb up BST from First Dam.  That boy can climb.  About killed me.  Fun run.

Short Trail Run - 

Went up Green from King Park.  Nice and easy.  Less than a week until the big day.  Feeling healthy and fit...Knock on wood.
