Solo run on the Temple Quarry trail (Little Cottonwood).
I wanted to get in an easy run with a little elevation and this was the perfect trail. It is a gradual uphill climb all the way to the top. I just had a nice easy pace on the way up and then the way down it was tough to keep it easy. I kept creeping into the low 7's even though I was trying to keep it at an 8:30 pace to save my legs. This is a fun trail to run down. I won't be doing any more elevation until Wasatch next week. I'll resist all urges to run up Mt. Wire. |
