1st official run in Cokeville, Wyoming tonight. Still very sore from skiing on the 4th, and feeling a general sense of fatigue. Wanted an easy run, and ended up hooking up with Nathan Fiscus, a local boy who will be running for Weber state this fall. Nathan recently returned home from the same mission I served in, England Manchester, so we had plenty to talk about. We just went out on the west end of Cokeville, heading south for 26 minutes, then turned around and headed back into town with the breeze at our backs. I never got into a rthythm, so I was glad the run was over at 50 minutes. AnnMarie and Myles were on the bike and bike trailer, so when we got home we switched and AnnMarie ran for 50 more minutes while I pulled Myles in the bike trailer. We a homemade sign at the local "Country Shopper" grocery store advertising a local 5k, the David Dayton Memorial 5K, on July 21st. I called the number and offered my services to help put on the race, and was eagerly accepted. I'm in charge of timing/placing, marking the course and well, it will probably be more by the time the race rolls around, which is fine with me. Cokeville is definitely a small-time country town, on our run, we came up on a mother skunks with 6 little skunk-lets following her. It was kinda comical, if you've ever seen skunks walking up-close, they sort of have a shuffle which looked like a little black-and-white parade. |
