| Full afternoon teaching the kids to ski on the big hill by our house. Human tow rope for them, pulling them up every run. |

| Intensly beautiful night running in the Spring Mountain range west of Las Vegas. Clear and 60 degrees until I gained some altitude. Then I froze. No idea of actual mileage or how long, I was just enjoying the run. This could be a new set of trails for me, previously unknown by my rookie self. This range gains 9,000 feet from the valley floor!

| First trail running overnight in a while. I slept on the side of the trail using my large camp blanket wrapped around me like a cacoon. I'd like to do a couple of long trail runs this summer that require overnights on the trail and I gotta get used to what this takes. Left an airhole on the end, but you gotta wonder what the CO2 is like through the night doing this. It hit maybe 38 in the night so I was pretty warm. I've used this before in my Jeep to make it through -28 nights in Colorado and it works great. I got maybe 3 hours of sleep since I was huddled in there typing a few responses back to some runners upset about a R2R2R that we are looking at running as a group again this Spring. Next time I gotta leave the phone. Got up this morning and ran back down to the hotel with just a few minutes to spare to get to work. |

| 1.5 mile swim in Arizona State's saltwater, edgeless pool. One of the best 50 meter pools in the country. Two small but important items of Utah news I read traveling the US today: Eli the orangutan at the Hogle Zoo has the world record for animal predictors of games by predicting Superbowl wins by hitting on a helmet. 7-0 with his last prediction of the Seahawks. The next contendor was a giraff I think. Also that the reason came up today by a US speedskater for the lower medal count was that they have been training on Utah's fast Oval ice, the Sochi ice is just too slow. I feel possessive of this ice since I have ran in the Oval once. |

| Early Valentine's morning and the kids and I had a good breakfast of chocolate. After I dropped them off at school I headed over to the Rockhaus and did some indoor rock climbing for the morning. For $5 you can climb all day here. Cheapest I've seen anywhere. |

| Every once in a jillion years you just get a perfect day. I had registered for the Moab 55k but when I got home late Thursday and picked them up I could tell they needed a different weekend than a long ultra run in Moab would let me give them. We headed south Friday with the kayaks and camped on the bluff above Lake Powell. In the morning I woke up the kids filling up our friends hot air balloon and they sat on the Jeep watching the set up. I don't think they breathed. After that morning we headed south to the Indian trading posts and National Parks between Flagstaff and Phoenix. All parks are free through Monday and we hit four of them. Tonight we ended with a night hike in the Superstition mountains East of Phoenix, 85 degrees. I seriously think sometimes the most rewarding thing to experience in life is holding your kids attention for an entire day. I know it's like getting hit by a meteor though. The only thing more impossible than it happening is that is ever happens again. |
