Shoreline trail run from Dry to City Creek.  Felt good, the climb is as tough as ever, and the descent requires a lot of concentration so you don't go splat.  I took the back way leaving the bobsled area intersection and basically power walked up the steepest section of the trail.  Of all the things you can say about SLC, having access to endless trails 1.5 miles from your doorstep certainly has to be one of the best things.  

 FYI the trail is in great condition a couple soft spots that could get slick in the warmer temperatures.

Run around the fieldhouse and several striders at the end. Nice little run.

Liberty Park run sandwiching yoga, rough class which made the short climb back into the aves very painful.

Well planned on a nice jaunt into City Creek Canyon on this 60(!) degree day in late November(!).  I was stopped by an elderly couple by the capitol to ask directions to the hospital in the aves, and they said sorry for breaking my stride.  After that I ran into the unfortunate circumstance of CCC being CLOSED, so I ended up adding on in the upper aves which included a killer climb up I street.  The valley looked super clear which is a good thing after all the muck in the air this week.

Big day today, started with 1 mile uphill then a four mile tempo from 11th and Virginia to 2nd and state. Felt good and nice to get the legs moving. Splits were 546 523 547 525 or something close. Then a quick trip to the house then down to yoga to get my butt kicked then a jog back home.

Well that was certainly a warm welcome to long runs again.  16 miles at what was 6:35/mile pace.  The CREW was an amazing group to run with and when most people pulled away I was glad to have Adam and Devra with me.  After I got back to the parking lot I added on another 2.5 miles easier (still under 7) to knock it over 16.
