I had the opportunity to go to Boise this week for our quarterly Black Box VR meeting and I will tell you this is the time of the year when Boise shines. It’s light early and late, it’s warm but not too hot and the trails are clear and ready.
Day one I decided to get up to Table Top Rock, where the giant cross is that overlooks Boise. I used Strava maps to calculate my route from the hotel down town.
I ran in a clockwise location running as much trail as I could on my way out and took the faster street way back.
The climb to the top is no joke, 1 mile at 10% average grade. Yes there is a Strava segment for it.
The view at the top is well worth the effort. I was very pleased with myself because I didn’t walk any part of the climb, which was a mental challenge.
I took a moment to say a prayer of gratitude for the opportunity to experience this wonderful adventure.
I highly recommend this trail when you get to Boise. It’s very well marked and well kept. I was out there early on a Tuesday and there were a lot of friendly people and dogs out there.
Stay tuned for Day 2 workout fun
