Visiting a long lost lover by running on Pipeline Trail. Havent been up there for awhile. I went up to Burch Hollow and ran up to Elbow Fork... kept a slow steady run going up which I was happy I was able to do...The canyon is ripe with spring run off water and the trail has crossing water at a few points but is in excellent dry shape otherwise. Only passed two bikers coming the other way. Took it slow...averaged 10 minute miles for the 6. Dont know how much vert this section is as garmin software not working on my imac. So far Oreo and I are thinking of still soldiering on and doing the Squaw Peak 50 next weekend but I at this point have only one goal and that is to finish. My body feels a bit hammered from the O town marathon last week and my feet/toe hurt worse today than during the race funny enough...can I wear your old trail shoes brother? haha |
