GRIFFITH PARK -- What a run. Took Maggs over to the park a few days ago and thought...hey, a run over to the East entrance and back across the hills might be fun. Woke up today and felt the urge.
Trying to different running programs on the new phone...started with MapMyRun which didn't work. Went back to CardioTrainer, which did. Ran all over the hills and whatnot, probably 2000 to 2500 of total elevation gain. Trying to get ready for the T-day trail run and this probably did that. Time and distance are pretty guestimate, but conservative. I'd say the distance was in the 13 range.
You can see from the vids there were some incredible hills and views. What you don't see is that I ended up fooling around and getting on some scrub trail to get over to Bronson Canyon and ended up having to descend down a rock face and ended up in some rich dudes' backyards. Snuck through the security fence and made my way to Franklin and eventually back home.
This MyTouch 4G is insane. It tracked the run on GPS (80% anyway), took live videos uploaded to Qik, took photos, got emails, texts and even made a phone call. And I checked the MSU score. Wow. No problems. Lightning fast. Love it.
One note from the hill, some mountain goat dude I passed didn't take kindly and nearly tracked me down by the time we summited. Awesome.
