Here are a few recent outings:

A run up the newly worked on lower stretch of the Farmington Creek Trail by Ryan Lauck, up the first section of the post-parking lot single track, and then looping across the creek to explore the Aqueduct Trail back – a first. All with a coworker, Spencer, who just moved here and is quickly getting hooked on the trails.

5.0 miles in 1:33:34 @ 18:44 min/mile and with 1,170 ft. elevation gain

A night run on pavement. Zzzz.

4.3 miles in 38:00 @ 8:53 min/mile and with 0 ft. elevation gain

A night run up Centerville Canyon. Bad idea to do in the dark. Rough trail, LOTS to trip on and having to stop a few times to figure out where the trail went.  Slow.

3.1 miles in 47:04 @ 14:58 min/mile and with 952 ft. elevation gain

A repeat of the 7 mile out and back from East Mtn. Park in Kaysville to Fernwood in Layton on the BST. I ran it faster than ever, getting PRs on all of the segments and even negative splits. I felt great! In my head I was thinking it had to be way faster than last time, but looking at the previous post it was only 2 minutes faster overall. Oh well – I’ll take it!

7.2 miles in 1:17:39 @ 10:50 min/mile and with 835 ft. elevation gain
