I decided to try running part of the Hobble Creek course on my way up to Ogden. I started at about mile 9 and ran up the canyon for alittle over 3 miles. I was suprised that I was able to ran an 8:04 pace up the canyon. Then I ran down and figured it out. I was now running into approx. a 20-25 mile wind. I ended up with a 7:40 pace down. I also realized that those 3 miles are the miles that have most of the uphills if you are running down the course. It is going to be a fun run in August. |
