15 miles @ 9:57/mi Trefoil to past Nunns, back to Vivian, back up South Fork a bit
I met Kevin and Wayne at Vivian then drove in a single car up to the top of South Fork. Our plan was to run to the mouth of the canyon then back up to Vivian (15+ miles). We met Larry and Jo between Nunns and Timpanogos and decided to turn to head back up earlier than planned so we could run with them for a little while. They turned back at Bridal Veil. We continued on to Vivian.
After we got to Vivian we still needed a couple of more miles so we headed back up South Fork. Kevin and Wayne pulled easily ahead of me. My legs were beaten, probably from basketball and ultimate yesterday, but I decided to man up and head up the hill. I did, and ended up reaching 15 miles, but my body was flashing some warning lights. Both calves were feeling tight, but held out. After the run I felt some tightness in my right buttock. I'm glad I could hang in there mentally. I hope I didn't overdo it.
