a 200 ft climb on the JRP in Utah County...yup, know just which hill you're referring to :) Nice short runs today for an ultra guy like yourself!!

When I saw your pic I KNEW that must be Pony Express, then when I saw your record there it reaffirmed it...I hope I'm right.

Rad: 200ft climb may be too generous. After the bridge on the far north end of the trail as it heads into the Jordan Narrows, I like to cut straight up the dirt (avoiding the paved switchbacks)cross the trail at the top and go up and over the hill on dirt again--have to get trail anywhere I can.

Tapering this week in anticipation of Squaw Peak next weekend.

You nailed the Pony Express shot, coming into Black Rock mile 68ish.

yup, that was the hill I was thinking of, although I've always run the pavement - I think the trail makes it worse. well, maybe better :)

Good luck at Squaw Peak! I love reading trail race reports. Someday I'll put on my big girl panties and do an ultra. I did the buffalo run this year and loved it. I need to do more, but road running is just too convenient :)
