Last week, I spent time in surrounding Salt Lake City, Utah area. In addition to taking in the many beautiful sights, drinking low alcohol beer (only 4.0 percent or lower beer is sold at grocery stores) and enjoying the respite from 95 degree Philly temperatures, I also did get a chance to do some running.
Running in most areas of Utah, of course, is much different than running here in Philly. In addition to gorgeous mountain and lake scenery, Utah is at a substantially higher elevation than our sea level city. Eden, where I did most of my running is at an altitude of approximately 5,200 feet, with many hills along the way. So what’s it like to run at altitude for a week? Quite an adjustment and challenging but also possibly rewarding.
