Pipeline

Ran the old pipeline trail in Millcreek with Scott. Up and out before the toll booth girl checks in to demand three bucks for use of the canyon. I felt good to be out on a canyon trail again. If I could I would live half my life on mountain trails. So much better than running at the same level as vehicle exhaust.

I felt good today, and am in a good position to build some real strength and endurance. I have some big days ahead: An extended 20 mile hike over Wildcat Ridge and beyond; an attempt at the WURL: Wasatch Ultimate Ridge Link-up -- that is, a continuous hike of the Cottonwood Ridge connecting the Alpine Ridge in a single push, mileage uncertain but probably 30+. Most definitely a 24+ hour ultra-hike.

Then an attempt of King's Peak X2; then one day Gannett run/climb over 40 miles in under 20 hours. Scott will figure into at least half of these planned outings, so I need to be able to keep up with him.

Nice run this morning slugger. Fun to share a 'moment' with you in the gully. Hopefully I will make all of those.
