Awesome trail run on parts of the new Red Mountain 50k course. It is going to be pretty sweet. Not fast but a beautiful course. I ran from the house and then caught Rim Rock, Rim Reaper, Rim Ramble, Barrel Roll, Precipice, and Black Brush today. I tried some new stuff with hydration and I think it worked. Absolutely gorgeous this morning. The legs were a little flat but that is okay. I wanted to see how I would respond after a bigger mileage day yesterday plus 6 miles of Tinman. Felt good to get a long run in on the trails. I tried meeting up with some of the boys but I just missed them. I saw them going up on Barrel Roll when I was coming down.
21.5 miles total. Great way to finish the week. 3 straight Saturdays with 20+ miles. Very happy with this. Feeling stronger everyday plus older everyday.
