I felt really good this morning. Originally, I wanted to go run up old snowbasin road to get ready for the Wasatch Back relay. I didn't get much sleep and didn't feel like making the trek up there. So I decided to run as far as I could up the East bench. It was great weather and I actually felt really good. I tried to push up the hills and not take a walk break till I got to the top. It had been a while since I had been up on the bench. I have some pretty good memories of delivery newspapers up there as a kid. I always remembered Karen drive because its my mom's name and I had to ditch my bike at the bottom and walk up it because it was so steep. 20 years later it still kicks my butt.
