| Hiked up and ran down from Lamb's Canyon to Millcreek Canyon. On the way back up, started to hike up Mt. Aire, but I was too tired and knew the climb up was going to be tough as it is. Definitely need to do more uphill work. It wiped me out. But the downhill runs were worth the uphills. My garmin stopped working on the way back up to Lamb's Canyon but then worked running down. I must have been moving too slow and it figured I was dead. 1.5 miles with Twilight tonight. Upper body workout.

| 3 miles running with the dog this morning. Late afternoon I headed out on the Elliptigo to find the end of the Jordan River Parkway Trail. It disappeared right around North Temple - so I'm thinking that might be the end - or else you have to zigzag to find it. Found lots of neat sights on territory I haven't covered before. My shoulders were really stiff on the way home. Either I was grabbing the bar more than I thought or too tense. Ran out of 70 ounces of water at mile 30. Stopped and filled the bladder with 40 more ounces of warm water. It beat nothing. That too was drained on the way home and I only pee'd once and not much - so probably dehydrated. The last three miles are a gradual uphill and I was totally drained by the time I got home. 38.25 miles on the Elliptigo. I'm giving myself 19 miles credit for the 4 hours of riding.
After - drank an entire quart of chocolate milk. That sure tasted good.

| Paced the 3:00 pace group for the Bryce Canyon Half Marathon. This is a beautiful course with lots of downhill. The first mile it rained and was cold which had me a bit concerned. Then the rain dropped back to a drizzle and race conditions were perfect until around mile 8 or 9. The day wasn't too hot, it was overcast, I had two fun teenagers to run with and lots of great people around. Last few miles it alternated between raining and pouring. We were trying to motivate people so we did a lot of jumping around and running backwards getting cars that passed us to honk. We motivated a few people - so it was all worth while. My daughter is in town, so we enjoyed the chance to go down and see Bryce Canyon. We loved taking pictures in Red Canyon. After the race, we got cleaned up and headed out to see Bryce Canyon. It was overcast, so we couldn't see much, but decided to go partway down into the Navajo Loop to see if it was pretty down there. It was - we got some gorgeous pictures. That area is really spectacular. Unfortunately, at the halfway point it started to rain and then pour. Jenn lives at below sea level - so combining altitude, being out of shape, and slippery/gunky trails made the trip back up even harder - but she hung in there and made it. I took off to hike to Sunrise Point while Jenn took a few more pictures and then drove over to get me.

| Plantar Fascitis really flared up after Bryce Canyon. Signed up for Big Sur 2013 and then walked the dog for a mile. |

| Ordered Isagenix today. Have to get off weight somehow. 16 miles around town. Lots of uphills (went up toward Highland Drive). Way too hot and ended up walking a lot. Easy miles are a total misnomer - because this was really tough. Desperately need a great run that reminds me why I do this.
