Pipeline run in the snow from Burch to Elbow Fork.  The first mile and a half are a fairly beastly push uphill...takes all I have to keep some jog going.  Got into some beautiful sunshine by the top.  Spikes helped today, but the snow was just a tad bit sticky and I would occasionally be running on platform shoes.

Staying downtown SLC this am, so went out on a run from the downtown area out to Liberty Park and a loop around that and then back downtown with a side detour through the Library grounds...shared the morning with some interesting folks on this journey...was fun

Finally got to the top of Mt Wire today...foggy inversion in the valley, but half way up the heavens opened and it was a bit of heaven the rest of the way up...sections of this trail are pretty straight up and relentless but manageable in a sucking wind sort of way...think it took me about 53 or so minutes to get to the red towers and when I was about at the top I come to this lady who I have seen on this trail before, tiny, tiny and steady strong hiker...but looks about 70 or so...man is she tough.  Fun day... not sure yet how much vert this is.
