Dimple Dell Gully with Jun and Brent:

It was so nice to get out on some dirt today in the gully. Temps were mild and I got to watch Jun in his extra short (and I mean short) shorts the whole way up and back. Great conversation and an enjoyable run. I think we will do the same thing tomorrow.

PM: I'll be hitting the gym to lift for an hour.

DD gully with Jun and Brent:

This was just about the same run as yesterday, pleasant temps, good conversation and plenty of shorty shorts to go around, but Jun's were the shortest. We ran from the Wrangler trailhead to the top and back. Tomorrow we will run the entire gully up to lower Bell Canyon reservoir and back for 13 and then the taper will begin for the 100 next week.

PM: 4 at the gym. I did some speed work and my legs felt better after I finished. I also did 30 minutes of core work.

Dimple Dell gully trail with Zac, Jun, Je10 and Leslie:

We had a really good group this morning up the gully from the Trax station in Sandy all the way to the top and back. It was funny because out of 5 of us Je10 is the only one that had a decent headlamp, so we all kind of ran as close to her as we could. I was surprised at all of the temperature changes as we made our way across the valley. At times it was really warm and nice and then within a few minutes the temp seemed to drop 15 degrees and I would be chilled. It was like that all the way up and back. It was a fun morning.

I'm in full taper mode for the Buffalo 100, so instead of running I hit the gym for some lifting and I found that Friday afternoon might be the best time to hit the weight room at the AF fitness center. I haven't seen it that dead in years. I had a very good session working my upper body/core.

Highland trail out and back with my wife, Kristina:

We had a really fun run from our house to the trail that connects 6000 west to the Alpine Hwy. We ran the whole trail out and back. The wind was really blowing and the first few miles were much harder than they should have been, but once we got on the trail it let up some. On the way back we picked up the pace and had a solid run back. It wasn't fast for me, but Kristina was awesome and kept up a really good pace all the way home.
