10.05 miles on a nice Saturday morning.  I ran down Hiline and then up Chubbuck Rd to the Portneuf Wellness Center and then back.  The uphill from Hiline on Chubbuck Rd kinda kicked my butt.

13.10 miles on a sunny morning.  Glen ran miles 2-4 with me and I saw him again at the Wellness Center.  I ran a couple loops around the center then ran back home.  Pace held very nicely.  This was my longest run since August of 2016.....I'm getting there!

7.10 miles on the JRP.  A warmish morning with the added challenge of trying not to swallow any of the cotton floating around from the trees.
