Ave Twins with MattVH:
Met MVH at the Capitol building at 5:30 for a run up City Creek Canyon to the Ave Twin Peaks. This is one of my go to training runs during the winter when there is a lot of snow on the higher peaks. The trail is 100% runnable, although Matt and I were pretty slow today. We both weren't feeling great, so there wasn't much speed, but we bad a blast laughing and talking all the way up. When we neared the ridge that leads to the summit we saw a green light ahead on the trail. Davy Crockett? He doesn't run up here. We did push it hard to catch up to them and it was a couple of deer hunters that didn't look very happy to see us.
We hit both peaks and it was windy and cold up there. I took a quick gel and we bailed fast. The run down was slow, but fun. Great views, good laughs and some sweet miles on single track trail.
