Pace: 7:16

Pretty good morning run. I started having a strange pain yesterday. Just above my knee would hurt if I straightened my leg too much, like going down stairs. I felt it a bit at first this morning, but I must have just needed to work it out because it went away after a couple of miles.

After 7 miles with Randy, I took off for three more. Ran pretty solid the last mile was under 7 minutes.

Another morning 10-miler. Legs felt kind of tired today. Probably because I was on my feet a lot last night packing for the trip. Now it's time to hit the road (Jack).

Bountiful, UT 7:20 am

Pace: 7:33

Lots of hills. Started up on Bountiful Blvd. Ran past the temple and then down the hill, very steep. Took a couple of wrong turns and then got on Orchard. Stopped at Dicks for a Gatorade and back to the house. Pretty warm out too.

West Jordan, UT 7:30 am

Pace: 7:35

I thought I would run along the Jordan River pathway. A good idea, except that I seem to have found one of the few places along that river that where the pathway doesn't connect. I thought I was on it until I started seeing homeless camps and a dead-end. So, I backtracked and then ran along 1300 West past the temple and back. Not a bad road to run on actually.

Bountiful, UT 6:45 am

Pace: 8:24

Some serious climbing this time. I ran from the in-laws' place up Eaglewood Dr. and around the golf course. I didn't mean to, but I was looking for the Bonneville Shoreline trail and there was a sign with an arrow pointing in that direction. The sign was wrong. But, I eventually found it and took it a couple of miles up to the Air Traffic Control station with a nice view of Salt Lake City. Then back down as steep as the climb up.
