| Wanted to do a sunrise Beacons hike, but the weather did not behave. Still got to see the sunrise but did not make it all the way to the top... In the afternoon the weather had improved a lot and walked the zoo with the family. |

AM: A restful night to a beautiful morning. Family run pushing both girls on the suicide loop run with a SugarHouse loop to cheer on the riders. I hope everyone running in Ogden also enjoyed this weather... Avg. 9:21 HR 139 Ascent 1089ft (pushing two girls!)
PM: A fun day. After the AM run did a Slurpee stop. Then a BBQ b-day party with the family. Since the weather was still perfect made it out for the second run. Still too much party in my belly but it was a nice loop of SugarHouse any... Avg. 7:17 HR 154
