Ran over to D Hills from Bloomington. Super excited for all the awesome races at the Autumn Classic. I am finally starting to get into a running groove again. Only took me 8+ months to get over dumb injuries. 4.32 miles 

Ran an easy run up into Washington. Ran mainly with Elijah then mixed in with another crew. Watched Bryan get attacked by a stupid chucho rat dog. When we turned around and ran by that same dog I had the kids surround and protect Bry Guy. 6.69 miles 

Desert running with Marieta. She wasn't feeling too well so didn't get out as long as I would have liked. 3.01 miles

Ran out with the crew then had to pee so I stopped at Ace. Then I saw my bro and sis in law looking for the Summit Rock so I stopped and talked to them. Eventually I caught up with Josh, Caleb, Elijah, and Dakota. I couldn't keep up with them when they ran their fast portions. 7.33 miles 

My legs were hammered. I decided to play the conservative route and just go slower and less miles. Maybe the universe didn't want me to do that because I got hit by an old bag driving a truck.  We made eye contact, and I am pretty sure she motioned for me to run through.  Then as soon as I ran in front of her she accelerated and I had to put out my hands and stiff arm her truck (Zac Zabriskie style). I threw up my arms and said "what the heck?" Then continued on my way. 3 miles 

After 2 days of no running I had to get out. So late friday night in Vegas I did just that. Hit the hard roads of Vegas. I found some cool park that had a nice soft track-like surface around it. 6.02 miles 

Ran around Calico Basin with Marieta. We snuck into Red Rock. I ran an additional 3 once Marieta bailed on me. 6.74 miles 

It takes my legs a little bit to get going so I struggled along behind the crew. I figured they would be doing an out and back so I would catch them on their way back. I never saw them again. I did my own loop through Green Springs I mixed in some fartleks. 1 minute with 4 recovery, 1 minute with 3 recovery, 1 minute with 2 recovery, and 1 minute with 1 recovery. I did this twice. I actually felt pretty good. 6.74 miles 

Run with Isaac, Gabe, and Dakota. 3.92 miles

After fighting a parasite for a week I got out and jogged around in the desert. No stress, no fuss, just exploring. 

3 on the river trail out towards Sunriver.
