| I didn't get my run in in the morning, and then I had to work late. So just before bed, I hopped on the treadmill and squeaked out a few miles. | | Add Comment |

| Today I ran on the Sessions Mountain Trail. This trail is a brutal uphill grind. My first mile split was 21:14. I was trying to run it, but there are some steep sections. The only relief on the trail is section that are still uphill, but note quite as steep. My second mile split was 20:20. Awesome, it was faster than mile 1. After running the grueling uphill for 45 minutes I stopped and headed back down the way I came. The trail continued on up but I didn't have time to go higher. I had climbed 2072 in just 2.25 miles. Nearly 1000 feet per mile. The downhill was great, although I couldn't go as fast as I would've liked to because of the steep sections.

| Where were you at 6 a.m.? I was out on the Wahsatch Steeplechase course. I didn't run the whole course, just some of the fun parts. It should be good training for the Jupiter Peak Steeplechase next Saturday. I started and the Bonneville Shoreline Trailhead in City Creek Canyon and headed up to the base of Black Mountain. I turned around when it got to the nasty steep section and head back down the same way I had come up. It was a great morning for a run.
