This was the last day that my friend Karen is in town from Austin.  She wanted to get in twelve miles up City Creek.  Heather came along as well and I pushed Jack in the jogger stroller.  It was a really nice run from the house, up Memory Grove, to the 3.5 mile mark in City Creek.  I found that pushing the stroller was a good way to keep a more sociable pace.  On the downhill, gravity did the work for the stroller.  We had a huge brunch at Avenues Bakery afterward, and a nap.  Very restful.  Had a great visit with Karen.

Hi Chad,

Thanks for asking, the foot is not completely better yet. I have been able to do a very limited amount of running, but there is still a fair amount of pain. Each week gets a little better and I think I will be able to return to full training within a few weeks. If you still have my T-shirt, I am still interested. I hope your training is continuing to go well!!

I love that run up city creek to the 3.5 mark. You can run it as hard as you want and get a real good workout, or, just run for the beauty and fun of it. Those social runs are often the best.
