Whenever we are driving to and from Coral Canyon, I see paved trails going off into the hills. I love running on these trails, so I decided today to venture over with Sarah in the stroller and check them out. I figure I need to do some hills, I might not be running a lot, because I'll be pushing the stroller, but a fun break from the usual. This is what it looks like from the bottom.
I turned on the Garmin so that I could keep track of how long these paths are, expecting to be hiking around for quite a while and just turning back when I needed to. I got around the bend at the top of the hill and... after a half a mile found myself at Highland Park. Hmmm, the adventure wasn't quite as exciting as I thought it would be. Of course when Mini Chi saw her favorite park she screamed to get out and play. SO, I walked for a total of a mile and played at the park. Oh well, now I know.
It is a really beautiful trail though. That's Pine Valley Mountain in the background.

Those pictures of road really make me run in St. George! Good luck with your training and your knee. I had the same problem and it took almost a year before it was completely better. I still ALWAYS wear my knee strap.
