AM-  Early morning run in the dark to Rosecrest park and back.  I was way tired and am still going to run again with Walter this afternoon so my pace was super slow.  Long days, early mornings and tired legs are a bad combo.

PM-  Met Walter down on the Jordan River Parkway trail. just off of 12600 S.  It was hot this afternoon and we were both tired and said we would take it easy but that didn't really happen.  We ended up pushing out a pretty decent run. We ran the last ten miles of the Riverton City Half that Walt won back in March.  It was a good loop, and I was very familiar with most of it.  About 2 miles into our run we ran into Hall of Famer Jerry Sloan and his wife, kind of cool!  I knew Sloan lived in Riverton but I have never run into him before.  Walt and I had a good conversation which helped me forget how tired I was during the hot ten miler.  We ran the 10 miles in 1:10:44 (7:05 ave.)   Good run!

So, Walter says you live in our neighborhood. We certainly run the same routes often! Those hills are GREAT, love 'em!

One day my hubby will have to tag along with you and Walter. I KNOW I can not keep up, but he can for a bit.

Have a great afternoon run.

Kelli, I live on Cave Peak and you and your husband are welcome on a run anytime.

Walter said you lived like 2 streets away, apparently he does not pay attention to where we live when he drops by. but you are close. My sister lives over there in the Peaks---Hoyt Peak Circle off of Kessler Peak.
