Woke up at 4:45 and got up a few minutes later to take Drake for a walk. Temperature in the low 60's, high humidty, mostly cloudy. Mars and Saturn were visible for a few seconds at a time over Mt. Mahogany. Dark enough to need a headlamp at times. Felt pretty good this morning with a little extra spring in my step. Weight at 161.4 (still have a ways to go, but moving in the right direction). Signed up for the DesNews 10K last night. Amelia's running it as well.

Clear skies, temperatures in the upper 50's, high humidity. Kind of tired this morning. Took half a mile or so before I started to enjoy being out. Took a little different route today in that I ran north past the high school and then followed the path around the pond. From there I headed west to the Alpine Highway and then north to the light at the Kohler intersection. Ran east to the light and then south to the funeral home (taking a potty break at McDonald's). Pretty good run over all.

Ran up AF Canyon and back. Beautiful morning. Temperature in the upper 50's with some headwind running up the canyon. Averaged 7:30 pace on the way back.

Early morning run with Laureen and Amelia. Probably should have started at 5:30 as it started getting kind of warm towards the end. Took in the Highland Glen park, Art Dye, new PG park, then Mt. Mahogany trail and back along the creek trail.
