Was in Sugarhouse for a haircut at 6, so I ran this loop afterwards:
AP was mid-7s with 750' of climb. I felt a little tired - from my workout 2 days ago, I suspect - but I should be normal tomorrow. With that in mind, I probably should've run more like 8:00 pace, but whatever. Those hills in the path around the Tanner area were kind of a surprise as I've never run on that path before. I didn't really intend to make it so hilly, but just kind of decided mid run to go up to Wasatch, without actually realizing that Wasatch is more than 500' higher than Highland High. It would be really interesting to see how people performed if someone put on, say, a half marathon on a loop something like this. I'm not sure that I could race this kind of loop well at all...
Stupid Garmin is apparently broken and won't turn on at all, so that's annoying. Edit: it appears to be working again??? It wouldn't charge and wouldn't turn on for a day, but I tried again today and it's charging up nicely. I'm guessing it won't have long to live, but I'm glad to have some more life from it.
Going to do something pretty long tomorrow. Should be fun.
