Canyon Road loop.  Felt really good today.  Weather was beautiful and temps were warm with a nice breeze.  Stars were out.  Gorgeous night for a run!

Green Canyon with Cody.  Worked pretty hard the whole way up and back, but it felt great!  Gotta get in shape for Logan Peak so Jon doesn't clean my clock too badly.

Another great evening for a trail run.  I am loving this whole early spring/summer thing!  Took the LRT to Bridger Cutoff and then I had planned to go up Spring Hollow but decided to go explore Mill Hollow just to the west instead.  Only went about half a mile, but the trail, while clearly less used than anything else near the River Trail, was in surprisingly good repair.  I'll have to run it again farther to see what the rest of it is like.

Medium Workout

2 mile warmup, then 8 miles of progressive tempo starting at Tinman pace and finishing at 5k pace.  Finished with 2 miles of cool down.  Quality workout today and perfect weather for a no-shirt run.

Easy run on the BST.  Feeling really good this week.  Hopefully it continues as I ramp up the mileage.

My apartment to the top of the Cody Draper Memorial Trail and back via Deer Fence. Run felt great!  It was a little chilly at first, after the stormy weather the last couple of days, but it got sunny and nice about 5 miles in.
