Through the Knolls and out to Flying J then back through the golf course. Nice easy Monday run to try and get the week started.

Did the fields loop that I did a couple weeks ago with Paul and Ben. No watch but I felt like I was carrying a pretty good pace. On the 8th mile I was really running pretty strong... I'm guessing 5:40ish pace. Finished up and ran into those two guys who were finishing their run. Nice and overcast today but a little muggy.

Did a long run today for the first time in a long time. I went out with Dan and Paul from here in my new ward. We left the corner above the house and ran out into the Knolls around the schools then out past Blue Bunny onthe new parkway road to Sunriver. Then we went up along the freeway to Flying J and took the trail into Bloomington Hills and then over to River Road back to the house. We avg. 7:24 pace for the run... not bad for not running much at all and those guys did great holding basically MP or faster for them for all 17. Good job Ben and Paul. Now to do some more honey do's.

Was going to catch a club run but we will be cleaning the temple this evening and I wouldn't have time to get back... so I went out at 3 p.m this afternoon. Normally this would be suicide this time of year but it was overcast and a good wind helped cool me off. I just did an out and backish thing over to Bloomington Hills. 

After getting back I decided to mow my lawn for the first time since we laid the sod a few weeks ago. It was kind of fun because both the mower and trimmer were brand new. As I was mowing away I realized this was the first time in my life that I was mowing my very own lawn (not in a rental, or parents or grandparents house). Our last house had fake grass in the back yard and rock around the side. So that made the chore even funner. Now if these clouds would stop faking it and just rain already it would be good for the grass.

After a late night I couldn't get up... then after I did I was up to my neck in yard stuff.

Worked in the yard from just before 7 a.m. to after 6 p.m. It's looking good but I'm going to die if I have to do another day like this in the heat.
