From home jumped into Provo Canyon to the BST and followed it 5 miles along the Squaw Peak 50 course to Rock Canyon campground. Down Rock Canyon to Univ Ave.

Ran out of water early. Was hoping for water at Hope Campground and as a second option filling up at slide/run-off section just up from Rock Canyon. Both dry. Water hasn't been turned on yet at Hope and run-off is done. No water.

Vert. Gain: 3,250

Salt Experiment: I don't take a lot of salt but seem to struggle in the heat. Experimenting today in mid-day heat. Took (1) S-Cap before the run, (1) more at 50 min, (1) more 40 min later. I think it helped. Less groin-pull today and felt more fluid.  I'll keep playing with it.

Beautiful run after work. NO WIND!! Perfect temp, calm, great evening run. 1 GU, no water. Wouldn't want to go much further without water.

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.
