Easy run with Jon and Cam from the end of Mt. Road in North Ogden.

I wanted a easy run today to give the hamstring a break, pace was relaxed on the trails. Pretty much 4.05 miles up the mountain and then turned back around. Pretty morning, nice and cool. 

Planning on another run today since I don't have to work until Sunday. Just found out also that my time got approved for the Boston Marathon, should be fun!! That means I have to train during the winter which is not so fun!!

avg pace on todays run 9:13 min/miles

P.M. 7 mile loop into North Ogden and Pleasant View, nice chilled wind on this run. Very pleasant! avg pace 6:53 min/miles
