Ran with the Dirt Tours tonight. We started at the Sunnyside Trailhead across from the zoo. We ran on the upper part Bonneville Shoreline Trail over to Red Butte Canyon and then ran the Circuit around the canyon. I not really sure if its officially called the Circuit, but that is what I call it. It was a challenging run this soon after Wahsatch Steeplechase, but if was fun. After the Circuit we ran the lower part of the Bonneville Shoreline Trail back to the trailhead.

Are they going to be running on Tuesday nights from now on - or will it change each week?

Yes, it will most likely be on Tuesdays for the rest of the Summer. Unfortunately, the person who organizers the runs isn't really on top of things and usual doesn't post when or where the next run will be until the day before. Next week will be on Tuesday for sure.

I think I can plan on next Tuesday. I'll try and be there and drag Enoch and maybe one or two others along.

I just found out that I won't be able to going running with Dirt Tours next week because I will be on a business trip back East.
