Stayed at the Spruces campground up Big Cottonwood canyon for Father Son's outing last night. Woke up at 5:30am freezing cold and figured there where 2 ways to get warm, go make a fire with wet wood, or go run. Luckily I had left my gym bag in the trunk of my car and had running shoes with me. So before the kids woke up I headed up the canyon to Brighton ski resort. Pretty tough climb 7% grade in some places starting at 7500ft ending at 8500. I didn't have my Garmin with me so I'm just guessing on the distance but Map my Run says about 5 miles total. Did it in about 40 minutes. Not as far as I would like my Saturday run to be but at least I got something in. |
