Total Distance

10.00

Met JD at the park and ride and Scott drove us to the top of Millcreek Canyon so we could run down it. It was AWESOME. That canyon makes me happy. Beautiful scenery, good conversation, great temps, perfect way to wake up on a Saturday morning. The canyon was a bit brutal on the body. Steep in sections, definitely going to be feeling it tomorrow, but worth it. We kept a good pace until I bonked at the end. :) The canyon was 9.5 miles and then JD made us run around the parking lot until the garmin hit 10. Which I'm grateful for but this is where I bonked and slowed our pace way down. Ended up with a 8:51 avg. Overall, super duper fun morning. Thank You JD for driving that far and meeting me to do that. I had a lot of fun! You rock.

Thanks Lysa - always worth the effort to get a run in with you, and Millcreek canyon is an awesome bonus. Oh, and thanks for the heads up on the Zep tune for the drive home.

I'm SO jealous! Remember when we ran it with Erin last year? Same Saturday, the week before her Halloween Half.

Way to make her run to 10 JD!

Good job Lys! I wonder if you'll be sore?
