The alarm went off at 4:30 AM. It was time to go running. One of the guys I was running with said he wanted to run 20 miles. I thought 18 was all I would go. We drove to American Fork Canyon, and started running up the canyon in the dark. I really don't like running in the dark, but if we waited for later it would be to hot. I had a deer run across the road in front of me about a mile before Tibble Fork dam. I made it to the top 7 1/2 miles later. I said to the other guy how much further are you going? He said this is as far up as we go. We turned around and ran down the canyon. I thought I guess we are only going 15 miles. When we got to the Timpanogos cave visitors center ( where we stop for a some water). I said we only going 15? Jared said to Harold you didn't tell him the plan did you.
We ran to the bottom of the canyon then hitched a ride back up the canyon 5 miles, and ran down again. The stiffness set in as we rode back up the canyon, and the first 20 yards of the run back down the canyon hurt. I was very tired when we finished, but I stretched out really well after the run, took a nap, and was fine.

That's awesome you were able to run that far and that you were fine afterwards! I can't believe you got up at 430 to go running though! YIKES!

Hi.
I could see it in my mind!
Amazing how mthose creatures will let you get close in the dark, though they see very well.
I get stiff real quick going down hill... hmmm
You are the example for me.
I keep the New Covenant,
when I fail....I am pulled
back into place by HIM.

Inspiring!! Do you experience any pain or breathlessness at all during your running or do you ignore and go thru the barrier? I find the breathing difficult due to the AS progression but make a good go at speed walking for an hour a day. Maybe I will try a little 'shuffling' agian and see how I get on.

I have never had a shortness of breath while running. I do often have pain at the beginning of the run. I figure if it goes away after 1/2 mile it was not a real injury just the AS. Good luck
