AM - my youngest daughter surprised me this for my birthday and joined me for a run around the resort.  She was good for a little over 3 miles - which was really sweet - anytime I get to share a run with my kids - is a gift.  I ran a bit longer and stopped at 5.6  miles as today I turned 56

AM - Dan and the dogs on the trail.  He had an early meeting so we finished at just under 3.5 miles - and so after cleaning up the dogs and my shoes from all of the dirt and mud, I did another 2 miles on the treadmill.

AM - 4 miles with Dan and Finn on the golf course - and because Dan had to end early to get to an appointment, I did another 2 miles on the treadmill.

AM - 6 miles on a hilly route with Finn - hamstring is feeling so much improved - although my pace in this summer humidity is pretty pedestrian it is so nice not to be running in pain.
