Flew in from Hotlanta this afternoon and had the rest of the day on call and a group run/presentation in Ogden at 7 so I ran the Skyline Trail to Ben Lomond. Awesome. I met up with the Tuesday run group at Peak Performance in Ogden for a 6 miler up to Rainbow Gardens and back on the Ogden Marathon course. Did Yoga stretching for a half hour afterwards. Stretching is something I'm getting good at doing after my shorter runs. It's a real difference in my calfs and Hammstrings if I keep up on it. We did a presentation tonight with Dale Earnshaw of Run4fun. Walter actually did it and set it up. If it wasn't for him I'd have no social life at all and be some kind of hermit/pilot/loser. The reason for the presentation was the growing amount of people interested in running a R2R2R. I've been thinking as I've seen more of the canyon and it's history, and now that it's facing it's biggest expansion ever, that maybe in the future people will look back at these days as the early days. Maybe even much more runners in the canyon. We can either work at hiding it, or work at educating those who are going anyway. Tonight was a good meeting with a lot of questions and some smart people. |
