Gomorning - 10 Hurricane Rim/Canal. Ran out on the Hurricane Rim Trail; it is one of my favorites. After flipping, I decided to drop down on the Canal trail. I hadn't ever been on it (at least the section under the Rim); I could tell from the map and layout it would be an adventure - but sometimes that's worth it. Today it was. The trail was particularly tough (and when I eventually climbed back up, I was on some never used side trail tracking along the cliffs, super cool but sketchy). Down in the river, though, it was all worth it. The river looks cool from up on the rim, but down in the canyon, it is the coolest part of the river I have ever seen. I definitely want to hike back there and just spend the day swimming and exploring. Just what the doctor ordered for me. Not a long run in distance, but the difficulty of the second half made the time nearly 1:40. (Sense 253.75)
Solid week of running.
Goals for next week: I would like to hover around that 70 mile mark. And of course keep healthy. Have to go to girls Camp for half the week, though, so who knows what that will hold.
