Total Distance

21.00

5 miles in the morning.

16 miles in the evening.

Nothing to exciting to report about the run this morning. I am planning on doing something a little different this evening. I did a fast hike/trail run up to Ben Lomond Peak. I went with a friend and started at the North Ogden divide and went up. It was absolutely perfect weather. It was just me and him with three motorcycle riders that we saw. I got blisters 2 miles in but I felt fine when I ran instead of hiking. It gave me a good excuse to run though. I wasn't worried about pace but just wanted to enjoy this run. It got kind of dark on the way back and I almost rolled my ankle a couple of times. I was careful and everything worked out. I was pretty tired after this fast hike/trail run and will probably not do it to much. My friend really wanted to do it so we tried it out. It was nice to do something a touch different for a run. I will definitely call this my hill workout for the week. I hope I can get some mileage in the next couple of days because I am going to Youth Conference for the next couple of days. It should be exciting!

Did you just see that I was running the Freedom Run from my blog? I would love to run together for a while there. It should be a good race with alot of pretty fast guys. I know that Jon and Cody will both be there, along with Carson Campbell, and some other USU runners. I don't think Paul will be there so it could possibly be a close race. I was telling my wife today that I could end up 6th or 7th in the age group, but hopefully not.

Have fun at your Youth Conference.
