Monday - 5 miles around the hood with MR. Found a network of running paths in the neighborhood.
Tuesday - Went on a short (but steep) little hike with MR up Lone Mountain.
Wednesday - 7 miles around the hood. Went up a road- wasn't sure where it was going, but it ended up creating a nice loop. It's fun to explore new areas while running. After the run, we went hiking at Red Rock. 4 or 5 miles total. One trail was super rocky and steep. The other was just a long gradual climb through juniper bushes and sage. We walked the trail to where there a was a sign that said "edge of wilderness." That's where we stopped and ate our lunch- on the edge of the wilderness. I'm glad there was a sign there or we wouldn't have known.
Thursday - 7 miles. Took MR on the path I went on yesterday. Finished by taking a different route. The weather is beautiful. Tank tops and shorts. I never want to see winter again.
Friday & Saturday - worked delivering flowers all day for a florist. It's my taper weekend before the 1/2 in Utah so I just slept in and didn't run. We delivered around 40 arrangements all over the city. It's great when you have a job that brings smiles to other people.
