Went out to Crafton Hills College and ran on the trails. There are miles of trails out there that I had no idea were there. Only problem is they are a bit more uphill than the Bonneville Shoreline Trail in Ogden. Jogged out 3 miles. I felt like crap. It looked like a gradual uphill but when I turned around and started cruising back I realized why I felt so bad. So the way out almost killed me, but downhill on the way back was fun.
3.15 miles uphill included a bunch of stop and walk breaks. I am not used to running outside or up a mountain in the heat. 9:44 pace. 30:39 overall time 307 calories.
3.03 miles downhill on the way back. Cruised the whole way and felt like I was flying. Perfect downhill. Not too hard on the knees. 7:40 pace. 23:18 overall time, 305 calories.
