It has been chilly ever since I got back to Utah.  Today's temps felt like late Sept.  But the morning was gorgeous. Early morning, presented a pale blue sky, with a thin sliver of moon, and single star.  The lake was still, unlike all these other windy mornings.  My Garmin was way off the first 3 miles. It would'nt mark the mile in the usual place, and then said I'd run a 10 minute mile when I know that was'nt right because I was sprinting every other 1/16th.  I reset it after 3, and it behaved.  I wonder if the satellite shifted positions recently.  Ran into Sarah, and gave her my progress report for Penny's by the Inch.  Me and my daughter will be heading up a campaign here in our neighborhood.  I had planned to only run 8 miles this morning, but ran that extra mile to chat with Sarah.  Not bad to get 9 in on a Monday.  Better enjoy these mornings.  I'm not looking forward to Wedensday when everyone goes back to school, soccer, piano, scouts, YW.  I'm dreading Science Fair Projects, research projects, reports, daily homework, etc. I may just have to start going in late to work (until after SGM) so I can run after everyone's out the door for school.  I didn't get to do all the things I wanted to do this Summer, but it was a nice  break from school and I had a lot of fun with my kids.

Nice run! It was chilly this morning too! I wasn't prepared to be shivering when I first went outside.
