Total Distance
30.14

AFTERNOON/EVENING (26.03 miles) = Repeat of last weeks run from AF Canyon (gate) to Timpanooke trail down Grove Creek to the Murdock canal and back to work (Thanksgiving Point). 100% better run than last week. I'm singing the praises of S-Caps. Took 1 per hour along with a GU every 30 minutes and lots of water (until I ran out 4 miles from finish). Night & day difference between this weeks run and last weeks same run--took 1 full hour off my time from last week. Met a couple training for Wasatch (Whitney, Steven) and Whitney's Dad Charlie, 2x Wasatch finisher back in the 80's.

Elevation Gain: 2,244 / Drop: 4,390

PM=  Sitting at 98.3 for the week. Gonna have to run 1.7 later tonight...too close to 100 miles for the week not to. That would be a first for me (excluding 100 race weeks).

SATURDAY NIGHT (4.11 miles) = 11 pm headed out for another 2...no 3...no 4. Taper for Squaw Peak starts...now.

Big mileage!!

From Jake K on Sat, May 19, 2012 at 21:29:12 from 67.182.215.126

I always say - there's no point in running a 99 mile week :-) Might as well just tag a little on and hit the century mark.

Great week - and great run today too!

From Bryce on Sat, May 19, 2012 at 22:31:54 from 76.27.58.194

Great miles Kendall! Love S-caps myself..nothing better.

From Kendall on Sun, May 20, 2012 at 00:38:31 from 63.228.217.130

Andrea/Jake: Thanks for the note. Jake I can't wrap my head around how you do it week after week. Incredibly impressed.

Bryce: If there's a magic pill it must be S-Caps. More fluid, less fatigue. It's delicate balance with electrolytes, nutrition and hydration. When they're out of whack it's not much fun.

From Bryce on Sun, May 20, 2012 at 21:15:54 from 76.27.58.194

Funny, I call S-Caps magiac pills too. Totally changed running for me, no more cramps, no more unsettled stomach. Tear it up at Sqauw Peak! I'm sure I'll see you there.

That run sounds awesome! I wouldn't mind doing that sometime. Very nice.

So, just to be clear, you ran from the mouth of AF canyon, up the road to the Timpooneke trailhead, then ran that Timpooneke road/GWT around the mountain to Grove Creek and then back to your office on roads?

Sick!

Jun: For the record, didn't run up AF Canyon but started at the gate up right fork of canyon (where the road is still closed). Timpanooke trail (or turn-off to campground) is 1.48 miles from gate. We should try running the full loop up the canyon and back around...now that would be sick!
