A bit cool this morning, at least for June. It was 42 when I left the house, but clear and beautiful. Feeling a bit of soreness in my left heel starting out, but it disappears once I get warmed up. Raced the quail this morning along the trail. For some reason they didn't take off flying, they were running along about six feet in front of me. Man, their leg turnover must be 500 steps per minute or more (remind me to count next time). I saw Antonio L. ahead of my on the North Cottonwood hill, so naturally I had to speed up to catch him. He wasn't moving real fast, but he kept up a pretty steady pace. He was wearing his headphones, so I think I startled him a bit as I caught up to him. I said hi and took off and then saw him again after I turned around. I've invited him to join us on Monday mornings, but so far he hasn't made it.

 After work I went to the AF Fitness Center with Laureen and Brittany. I ran 3.16 miles and then stopped to watch a boy's baseball game. It brought back a lot of memories. When we got home we were delighted to find that Amelia had cooked dinner and set the table (as we were all starving). A real nice day all around.
