Draper trails with Rob. Gasline, Ghost Falls, Clarks, Ann's:

I met Rob at 7:00 am at the Equestrian park in Draper for a run on the Draper trails. We wanted to do close to 15 miles, but we didn't have enough time. This was the first run of the year that it actually felt cold at the start. My car said the temp was 39 when I got out, but as soon as we got moving I warmed up pretty fast. One thing we both noticed was a lot less mountain bikers on the trail which was nice. The fall leaves were absolutely stunning in several places and it was really a lot of fun out there.

The first part of the run was climbing up to Ghost Falls and then from Clarks over to Ann's trail to the tunnel. From there we were going to go tag View Benchmark, but when we got to the Maple Hollow connector trail Rob was tired of climbing, so instead we stayed on Ann's and ran another mile before stopping to take a gel and turn around.

The run back to the car was fast. Rob wanted to push a fast pace, so we ran close to a 7:00 pace all the way back to the car and my legs were feeling it the last .5. It definitely felt like a much tougher run than the mileage would indicate.

What?!? No View Benchmark?

Haha. If it had been up to me it would have been tagged. I felt like a crack addict that had been denied.

Beautiful fall day for running!
