Grand to Grand Ultra 2024 Training

Grand Staircase Escalante

Spencer Flat Road (Out and Back)

Miles: 8.9 (14.32k)

Time: 2:57

Elevation Gain: 791ft (241m)

Pack Weight: 12.32lbs (5.59kg)

Date Completed: 8/12/2024

Beautiful out and back run among the Navajo sand stone. I chose this route because it was dry. The previous two routes I have run here in the last week (along the Escalante River and Zebra Slot Canyon) had multiple water crossing. I increased the pack weight this week to about 12.32lbs (5.59kg) to start getting the legs used to the heavier pack. The weight is without water.
