Last weekend I took an extended weekend trip to Park City Utah to visit Meg, who is teaching at a geology field camp there this summer. It was great to visit Meg for the first time in almost 7 weeks, and to get to my fix of mountain running too!
The Wasatch MountainsI was able to do several 3:00:00+ runs in the Wasatch mountains between 8,000 and 10,000 feet in elevation including near Alta Utah, at Jupiter Ridge near Park City, and Empire Pass outside Park City.

Trail running here was a blast!Besides running and hiking, Meg and I ate in one of the best Thai restaurants I have ever been to, visited the Park City Olympic Training Center - site of the 2002 winter Olympic games, and found 5 geocaches in the area. The only down side of the trip was having to leave to head back to home for work. I hope to go west again this fall for a longer running and relaxation respite with Meg.
