12.03m@7:33 on the trails today. Did some exploring and found some places NOT to go. When I got the rock pile, I decided to go right on the Great Western Trail...MISTAKE! I quickly lost all the elevation I had just worked so hard to gain and it was so rocky and uneven that it was slower than most climbs. It dumped me off on the firebreak road where I saw a group of 3 runners and a dog. I stopped and chatted and then continued on till I saw a trail going off the side of the firebreak road. That led me to "Down Dragon's Back" or whatever strava called it... that was crazy. Then running up the Provo River Pkwy Climb was brutal. I went as slow as possible cuz I wanted to do it without walking or stopping and I ended up with the CR. Yipee! 5:12 for .4m climb (13:00 pace) @ 20% grade... 422 feet. To you avid trail runners maybe that is NBD, but that was dang steep for me! Then I continued back towards home base via the firebreak and added on some on the BST to get to 12. I saw the group of 3 runners and dog completing their Trail 51 loop and ran it in with them. Fun morning but next time I won't go right at the rockpile :) 2 or 3 stops total.
