Stanky Creek Satellite Image

Drew, Michael, and I set off to Stanky Creek again tonight. Our run was delayed by a brief storm, so we headed off on the trail around 6:20ish. I was hoping to get 16 in, but I knew it was going to get dark quick because of the weather, so we cut it to 12. According to the P-diddy plan 12 is supposed to be my longest run this week anyways, so I'm satisfied with tonight.


Our pace while it was still light out was between 10:45 and 11:00, but when it got dark and we had to use our headlamps (that needed new batteries so the light was minimal), our pace slowed to 12:00. That pace sounds slow, but check out the elevation changes on the trail.


I know that it is nothing compared to other places in America that have crazy nuts elevation, but this is the best Memphis has to offer.

After we were done we headed to get an all-American healthy meal at McDonalds. For some reason I always crave McDonalds french fries after a long run. Horrible, I know.

Happy running!
