LONG RUN

I met Ben at 2nd and Harrison. We dropped his car off and drove mine to Rainbow. Bret met us there and ran the first 3.5 miles with us before he headed home. Ben and I ran from Rainbow along the canal road to Weber High School. Then we ran up to the top of North Ogden and hit the Bonneville Shoreline Trail. It was pretty dry for awhile, but at the highest 2.5 miles at 5,800 feet elevation we hit some deep snow. We were post-holing for two miles in knee-deep snow. Needless to say that killed our overall average pace. We ran that to the divide and then back along Mountain Road to Ben's car, avg pace overall 8:24/mile. Pace for the 19 miles that weren't in knee-deep snow was 7:31/mile.

It was fantastic weather and a beautiful morning. Minus the snow for 2.5 miles it was a glorious, spring trail run.
