I got a baby-sitter for my little boy and finally got out the door for a run at 10:30am.  I had originally planned to go with Jon @ 7:00am or Paul and Cody @ 9:00am, but I couldn't find a sitter.  It was nice weather and I tried to take it pretty easy so I will have something left later today when I run with Paul and Cody.  I did an out and back 10k into River Heights.  I felt good, not as smooth as yesterday, but good.

I ran again with Paul and Cody this afternoon at 4pm.  We met at the end of Hollow Rd. at the mouth of Blacksmith Fork.  We drove one car up and left the other one at the bottom.  We warmed at a brisk pace for 2 miles and then started some tempo.  Paul took off ahead and I hung with Cody.  We did 4 miles of tempo at about 6:08 pace, not too bad for having run earlier in the day.  There was a slight head wind that was more annoying than anything.  The good thing was that it actually kept us cool, which I was grateful for because it was warm.  We finished our tempo miles, met up with Paul again, and ran the rest of the way out of the canyon together.  It was a good run and great to have some company, especially on the tempo part.  I was glad to be done when we were, but I was even more glad to finally get the  poweraid in my car when we drove back up to get it.
