House to the top of City Creek and back.  It's 21.89 miles but I had a .25 mile diversion so my total is 22.14.  run time 3:37:55  9:51 ave

Last time I did this run I ran it in 3:28:04 and that was .25 miles less and it was June 2011, just before I ran a 3:23 in the Desnews marathon.

1:03 from gate to top, 49:49 from top to gate.

Last mile 8:43

After my Desnews disaster this year (3:59 and walking) I was having thoughts of bagging the Grand Slam.  I told myself that if I can do this run today and survive that I would follow through with running Big Cottonwood and St. George.  The run went very well and I'm all in for finishing the grand slam.  I honestly thought I wouldn't be able to do the run and I'd be calling my wife to pick me up or do a lot of walking.  I'm very happy this went well and feel like I'm back to being my normal bad self!  I wasn't trying to go fast.  This is a tough run and I knew to take it slow.

Same run as last Sunday, house to top of city creek and back.  22.14 miles, 3:31:40  9:12 ave pace, this is 6 minutes faster than last Sunday, I was trying to go a little faster.  I opened it up pretty good coming down City Creek.  Started my run at 5am, beautiful, cool, dark run.  Almost a full moon so I was literally chasing a moon shadow.

1:02:30 from gate to the top,this was 1 minute faster, 45 minutes down, 4 minutes faster.
