     Still in Pennsylvania. I ran from the house to the same trail I did yesterday. I ran to the Milford Knob again which is an overlook that gives you a great view of town as well as the tri state area along the Delaware River where Pennsylvania, New York, and New Jersey all come together. I took a slightly different route this time that was slightly shorter at 6.3 miles round trip. A lot of the climbing can be run but a few places get steep enough that hiking is as fast or faster. I gets tempting to go fast coming back down but I restrained myself. Overall pace was 8:47.

     My reason for coming out to Pennsylvania was to help my stepson move back to Idaho. I flew out and spent the last 2 days doing some repairs to the car [a 93 Toyota Camry with around 250 thousand miles on it] and packing it completely full of his belongings. This morning we headed out early to make the trip back across the country to Idaho. The car has plenty of problems so we loaded in a bunch of tools and went for it. We made it to Chicago to spend the first night with my sister in law. Never got a chance to run.

     We got to bed Late last night in and were planning to leave somewhat early. I didn't want to miss another day of running but also needed to get as much sleep as possible to prepare for another full day of driving so I just got up early enough to get in 4 miles. Ran through the streets of North Platte and a little ways along the Platte river. We headed out and drove all day again arriving home about an hour before my 9 o'clock basketball game. We only had 5 guys again so all had to play the whole game.
