| 5:00 a.m. 5 miles very easy with Pickles on the Skyline Route. The deer were out having a mass meeting in the cemetery and at Loma Vista this morning. Met up with Liz and J-dog for about 2 miles or so. |

| 7:15 a.m. Ivins, Ut. 5 mile easy run with Pickles along the Toe Trail at the base of the red rock cliffs. What a gorgeous morning running while sun just emerged. Those beautiful red cliffs against that clear, blue sky and the red earth contrasting with the green brush. Over to the Tuacahn road and back down to the Snow Canyon Parkway path and back home. 9:15 a.m. 45 minutes at Gold's Gym with Sharon. 20 minutes elliptical, 20 minutes upright stationary bike, 5 minutes on the clunky stair stepper. I like the ones at the Tooele gym better. |

| 8:00 a.m. Ivins, Utah. About 10+ miles, didn't take my Garmin. 1 hour 39 minutes. Headed to Snow Canyon, but couldn't get past the Gestapo at the gatehouse because I didn't have my pass on me nor $4.00. I've been running there all summer, but don't like to carry anything, and haven't had to--until today that is. Thank you so much, state of Utah! I'll make sure I carry my pass next time. Do I need to bring my driver's license too, just to prove that it's me? Maybe these turdheads will try to stop 1,500 of us running the half marathon there in two weeks. That would be funny. Enough ranting! Finished my run on Snow Canyon Parkway Trail and Sand Hollow Wash trail, where tax-payer dollars are suffucient enough to not require my pass, or 4 bucks, to use it and then headed back home to Ivins. 5:00 p.m. 6.75 mile mountain bike ride up to and along the Toe Trail at the base of the red rock cliffs up to Tuacahn and back via Painted Hills drive and Snow Canyon Parkway path down Puerto and home. Very nice evening. |
