Cool morning under clear skies. Temperatures in the high 30's. I was surprised to find some tightness and a little soreness in my left ankle this morning. I shouldn't have taken yesterday off. I needed to get my daughter to school early, but I could have found a way (I felt some extra regret after seeing how nice it was following overnight showers). I felt pretty good by the time I finished, but I need to make sure that I get out every day this week.
For those living in Utah and who run in the morning, you may want to pause for a couple of minutes and watch the skies towards the northwest. The International Space Station will be passing from the northwest to the southeast starting about 6:12 a.m. It won't be quite as bright as Venus, but should be clearly visible.
