Today would have been my 15th wedding anniversary.  I know, I know I can't dwell on the past.  I decided to run up Mueller Park canyon to elephant rock.  I didn't want to push the pace at all because the intent of today was just to enjoy being outside.  After about 2.5 miles I was approaching 3 ladies running.  I politely asked if I could pass them and they jumped and screamed.  I really had no idea the appropriate way to announce my presence with out frightening them.  I was warned about a moose on the trail by a few mountain bikers but never saw said moose.  Coming back down I kept the pace pretty easy.  It was a great morning and glad I went up there.

Glad you had a nice enjoyable run this morning. Your right, don't dwell too much on the past.
