Beautiful. Long. Lonely St. George run. Jeff dropped me off in Veyo at 7am and the sun was rising.  I ran 9 miles of the marathon route, beginning with the big Veyo hill. It was me, my music, some cows, horses and road kill. That right turn around mile 7 was gorgeous as you turn and see snow canyon and run down a big hill. I tried cran rasp (I think) shot blocks during this run and liked them. At mile 9 I got to the top of snow canyon state park and got on the path. Very hilly path. There were some very steep downs and ups, esp toward the end. Maybe that trail is more meant for bikers. That was a long spell on that path. I think I was there until around mile 17? Turned to go toward Ivins on that path for a minute and then turned right and and left ran under the road and took a path down toward town. I refilled my water at a park around there. Took the path to Dixie drive which took me down past the condo. I stayed on Dixie cause I didn't want to run up the big hill. Ran to the fun park and had Jeff pick me up there. 21!!!!!!! Weather was perfect. It was cold in Veyo, I had on long sleeves over a tank and shorts on. I took off the long sleeves @ mile 10. The sun was up for most of the run but it was wasn't too hot. Always a nice coolness in the air. Loved running in St. George all week!

Incredible run!!!

Any chance the condo you are referring to is the Worldmark ones? If so ... the Bear Claw Poppy Trail is right behind it. Oh ... I love that trail!!! You can drive close to it's entry point or run a steady incline. :)

Awesome run today, and great week!! Sounds like some sweet running in St. George for you this week.

Fun to text you throughout that run - while I sat on my butt! Love you girl! You are the bomb.com!

Thanks guys!

Teena Marie-We stayed in Green Valley at Las Palmas condos. There are bike trails behind these condos but don't think it's the trail you're referring too. Sounds like a tough trail to run on. You are tough!

Stacie~

Those are the exact trails I am talking about! :)

Worldmark and Los Palmos share a road (Worldmark is the name of the timeshare units that are right next to Los Palmos.)

The trail is awesome. You should really consider running it if you have time. You can run to them or drive. I am trying to think of how to explain how to get to it. You know the road that Los Palmos is on (I think it is called Canyon View)? Well, right above that, the big dirt area, there are a bunch of small dirt paths/roads that can take you southwest. One of them is big enough to drive on. If you drive up the mountain you will come to a gate. You have to park there. Then about a quarter of a mile up from that the Bear Claw Poppy trail starts. Hmmmm ... I bet someone at the front desk could give you exact directions. It is fun! :)

k cool. I'll have to try it next time I go. We're actually home now. I read about you running that fun trail on your blog and had no idea that it is right near where we stay. We've taken 4 wheelers out on those trails but maybe not all the way to Bear Claw poppy trail cause I don't remember coming to a gate.

So sounds like Worldmark is south of the Sports Village?

Yep! :)
