The thermometer said 42 degrees this morning, which means one thing . . . shorts! This is the first weekly training run I have done in shorts in a long time, probably since 2007. I hear its supposed to dip back down into the 30s later this week, so I'll just enjoy it while I can.

I ran out on the standard TTIP route via the grass going up to the monument, and then did the St. Mary's Golf Course loop (with some fairway running). Next, I jumped up on to the Bonneville Shoreline trail trail access at the zoo and climbed up to the main trail, eventually winding over to the bottom of Dry Creek Canyon. Hit the metal pipe on the third throw (my shoulder hurts from the first two throws ... too hard).

I ran a few drills on the grass at the end; carioca, high knees, skipping.

 PM:  Jack and I ran a few easy miles after work, out and back to Memory Grove.
