Kerry's Running Blog

Ran the Highland Glen loop and then instead of coming back down North Cottonwood, I ran to the mouth of American Fork Canyon and then along the golf course trail. Legs felt good with no real aches or pains to speak of. Lots of people out this morning, but Richard couldn't make it because of a banged up knee.

Highland Glen loop with a run up the hill on North Cottonwood. Warm and a bit muggy this morning. I was a bit surprised this morning to hear footsteps coming up behind me as I running behind the high school (I don't think that's happened to me all year). Another runner was coming towards me at the same time from the other direction. The runner passing me was Ryan B. who didn't seem to be moving that much faster, but even as I picked up the pace, he was still putting distance on me. He then seemed to kick it into another gear because he put a couple hundred yards on me before we turned to go different directions. I still need to talk to him about joining the blog. Saw a lot of people along the path this morning. Will try to get in a few more miles this evening with the family.

Lunchtime run around the Highland Glen loop. It was hot, but really didn't feel too bad until I was done. I have to admire the people I saw along the way that  likely have to spend the bulk of every working day in the heat. It really makes me appreciate my job (and my basement office).
