Run 2:00:00 [3] 16.5 km (7:16 / km) +625m 6:07 / km
shoes: Salomon Sense Blue #1
Squeezing out the last few days of alpine adventures... we are heading to the island for a week and a half and looks like a pulse of winter is on tap for the high elevations this weekend. Had wanted to run to Eva Lake but a grizzly hanging around the summit meant a group of 4 restriction. Dogs aren't allowed there this year either.
Decided to run Frisby (have never run into the alpine) but short cut the start of the trail by using the ATV trail. About 1.5km and 200m of climbing joined me with the bike trail a little after the 5km mark (saving 7km roundtrip). This route works out pretty nicely for trail running as I was into the sub alpine within half an hour. First lake was ar 4km so much more manageable for Milo (both from a water standpoint and also from a speed standpoint - the trail is too fast on the way down when biking). Nice temperatue (15C at the truck) and periodic sun. Really nice fall colours. The ATV section of the run was less steep and rocky than my memory of it.
Felt pretty crappy for the first 30 minutes. Stopped for a bit at the lake and ate a bar - felt better afterwards though the grade did ease off at that point as well. Good two hour run - worth doing again. Might be able to drive slightly higher on the road that turns right a little earlier.
