Beautiful, clear morning. Pleasantly cool for the whole run. A bit of a canyon breeze right at the mouth of the canyon, but nothing outside of that. Laureen and I left the house about 5:30 (after I drove around to drop water off). We were both amazed by the number of runners we saw this morning. We expected that this close to St. George that we'd see others out and about, but there were two or three times as many as last week. This week we only ran down to Harvey Blvd. before heading north (cutting off a few miles in the process) and we didn't extend the run along the mountain trail, nor run further west along the canal, but outside of that it was basically the same run as last week. Laureen was running stronger, which I was happy to see. If she does well this year at St. George it'll all be worth it. I was hoping to add a few more miles on, but we needed to get back to take the girls to some early activities. With the light rain and cooler temperatures in the afternoon, I was really hoping to get out again, but there was just too much to do. |
