1000 vertical feet, 2 bursting lungs, and 1 amazing view from Vista Point. I was more than a little nervous about running uphill, so far I have doing only relatively flat runs. So let’s do a REAL run, and go up to Vista Point in the Blue Mountain Recreation Area near Missoula.

1st hill run of 2016 to Vista Point

It was an awesome run through blustery weather – the sun shined, the clouds rolled in, the snow started, and the trail turned into a long mud puddle.
