I started at the Boulder City Library, and followed the creek up the canyon to Magnolia Drive.  Then I ran back down.  There were two portapottys on the trail.  Unfortunately, they were BYOTP.  That sucks.  I was surprised it was quite warm at 6 a.m. in Boulder.  I thought it would be colder.  Now I want to move there.

Family bike ride, and run for me.  We had 75% attendance, and enjoyed a wonderful, cool evening along Legacy trail and Pages Lane.  Anna weighed me down in the jogging stroller, but she did sing me a couple songs.

BST to Freedom Hills, with Jens on the bike.  He was slow on the hills, so I did extra backtracking to let him catch up.  The cooler temps brought out the hillside bugs, so I obligingly ate a few.  Cloudless sunset = dull sunset.

Ash rode her bike, Anna rode in the stroller.  We went to JP, and I ran 5 miles of loops around while they played at the park.  Then we came home.  It was a later start than optimal, but not too hot.  I was pretty sad when I saw they drank the entire .5 gallons of liquid we dragged with us.  

I'm slogging along.  Work has been so busy, I've missed a lot of runs.  I realize you can't cheat a marathon, and that will bite me in October in Layton.  It should be a valuable experience, nonetheless.  I may only have one good marathon in me per year, at least the way my life is presently balanced/out of balance.
