We ran my favorite route today, up through the golf course. The first 3.5 miles are up hill. You have to cross a sky bridge at 3 miles, and this is at about the peak of the hills.  For 3 yrs I keep thinking, when you get to the center of the bridge you can do your "Rocky" dance.  I am pretty gutless so of course it hasn't happened, but I think about all the way up the hill.  At mile 4 you loop around the golf course and come out to see the the Salt Lake Valley and up into Davis county with the lights all lit up. When it is lighter outside you can see the Great Salt Lake. You have about 1/4 a mile of the view and it is just breathtaking. The wind picked up a little from mile 2 to mile 5 but it was a great run.  Just Perfect!

 

Happy Running!

Jody, all right, next time run as hard as you can up the hill, then do the Rocky dance. It will be worth major commando points, extra points if anyone is watching.
