AM - 6.25 miles in Las Vegas - heading to Anaheim midday today for a different conference.   
 

PM - met up with Greg who coincidentally is at the same conference as me and used to live here.  So we went for a run at 3 pm with temps at 90 - but it was dry and we had a good quick-paced 5 miles.

AM - 8.5 miles with Greg in Anaheim- we ran around the Angels stadium and a trail along the Santa Ana river.   Nearly got lost - even though he used to live out here.  
 

PM - 3.75 miles around the perimeter of Disneyland - needed to de-stress a bit.  Busy day both at the conference and my day job.

AM - 8 miles with Greg on a different part of the bike trail.  

PM - flew up to San Francisco for my next conference - had an hour or so to kill, so did another 4.5 miles from my hotel down to the water and around the Giant's ballpark - fans lining up to head inside for a game tonight against the Padres.  If I did not already have a client dinner scheduled, I would have probably gone back and bought a ticket.

AM - back home with the guys on the trails with the dogs in the rain.  Everyone had early days so we kept it short.  Will get some additional running in later today hopefully.
