Trails are fun

All of my running has been divided between parks, my neighborhood, and the Timpanogos high school track.  These are all great places but sometimes they can get kind of monotonous.  Thankfully there are trails.

I spent the weekend with my family at Island Park, a reservoir in eastern Idaho.  Island Park is beautiful and is full of great trails.  The beauty of the scenery absorbed me as I made way down the dirt roads and trails.  I didn't go far, probably about the same distance as normal, but the experience made me a convert.  I am going to take advantage of the trails in and around Utah County and beyond.  Trail running is a great way to experience the great outdoors and to change things up.

  1. How many miles does the shoreline of the reservoir cover? Just curious! :-)
