AM - 14 miles. Ran over to the park and junior high in my parent's neighborhood and did a lot of laps around the perimeter on the grass. The loop was a little over 1.5 miles, so I just did that over and over and over. Salazar got in my head w/ the soft surface obsession :-) I'm trying to keep all my recovery runs on the canal path or in the parks while I'm down here. Tomorrow will be a harder day so I kept the pace very casual this morning. PM - 5 miles at sunset. We went to X-Mas Eve services at the Franciscan Renewal Center in Scottsdale. Beautiful setting next to Camelback Mountain... nice to sit outside in the sunshine...
