Seeking a better country...

I got home from work needing a run in the worst way.  We decided to meet at the park for family night.  I took off, and headed for the hills.  I ended up at the temple, climbing up 400 North.  I walked for one light pole.  That's a long climb.  I crossed the blvd, and ended up at my parents in the nick of time for a pit stop.  I saw my cute niece and nephew for a few minutes, then headed back out to get down the hill to the park.  Those were the faster miles.  It's getting dark so much earlier now...The temp was great for this run, but I could do without the GI issues of the last few days.  Maybe if I drink more soda...

Ah, fall.  The moon came up.  There is something nice about running in moonshadow.  It nearly made up for being on the frontage road for a while.  I mixed in some hills so I wouldn't be mad when I got home.

The first half of this mid-day run was with the jogging stroller and two girls on bikes.  We ran over to take Nena some books and lunch at work.  These miles were slow.  Then we came home, I dropped everyone off and went out for 4 more.  I grabbed a popsicle to eat, and that worked surprisingly well.
