The other night my wife & I went to dinner at Mazza's, a great middle eastern restaurant where my friend Morganne works. She told me about how City Creek Canyon is the place to run if you can't hit the trails so the next day the misses & I went up to have a look for ourselves.
The canyon has a small paved road that is closed to traffic, making it ideal for a run or ride. In fact it used to be where Salt Lake City procured all of its water. It now uses other sources but still has a treatment plant about 3.5 miles up the canyon.
Only you can prevent bears from smoking in the forest.
It's not often you have a run where the miles are marked & you have bathrooms every mile. Mile 5 was as far up as I would climb, fortunately my return was all down hill.
How many runs can you find that are five minutes from the city center?
