Route
Last weekend I spent 4 hours and 15 miles traversing the Inner Canyon Trail and the Upper Rim trail, coming up with a perfect half marathon route! This route is appx 70% runnable. Which means we hike rocky sections, steep sections and slick sections. There is very minimal doubling back. I like stairs, so that’s a bonus for you because we will climb a fair amount! We pass waterfall, among waterfall, among waterfall. Forget about needing an airpod because the sound of running water around each bend is like a siren’s song that will help make the miles fly by!!
