Easy recovery run following the usual Highland Glen loop. Achilles was a little sore starting out, but it didn't bother me after the first half mile. It's nice and dark again starting out, but really warm. Only saw about four people out walking or jogging. Felt pretty good after the first mile or so and started picking up the pace.

Routine Highland Glen morning run. Dark, mostly cloudy and warm. Passed a group of four young, fit men heading west towards the park. At first I thought they must be part of a high school cross country team, but as I got closer I could see that they were older. Very unusual. About the same time I noticed the purple clouds in the east above American Fork canyon and started picking up the pace.

I was going to go longer and harder today, but decided to back off because of lingering knee and ankle soreness.

Knee soreness still lingering a bit, but felt pretty good over all. Watched the ISS pass over just before starting out (around 5:30). I was surprised to see it going from southwest to northeast.
