10 miles in 1:18 in the gully. Another beautiful day. I always classify gully miles as "easy", but I always feel like I've accomplished something when I run in there.

Jake is out running with my cross country team now. After practice I'll be heading to Abby's swim meat up at the Draper pool.

That's because it's like running through a foot of quicksand in some places. Easy on the impact side of the coin though. I really need to do some more running there that's for sure..

Yeah I think the bonus is working all of the lower extremity stabilizer muscles... You know, the ones you never think about until you're in a xc race, or mile 22 of a marathon.

You sure you want Jake running with your team? isn't he some corrupting influence? Soon they'll all be running 130 mile weeks.

I'll help them find the happy medium between 130 mpw and sitting on the couch playing video games all summer.
