Some of the hardest "easy" miles I ever ran today.
The family was in the mood for a quick late Summer getaway so we deove up to Logan on Saturday and stayed in the spiffy Baugh Motel. This is an old school 1950s style motor court with all the rooms on ground level, a really nice pool with a 10 foot deep end (certainly used to have a diving board before lawsuits brought an end to that era). Of course, Abby and Andy spent almost the entire time in the pool along with Steve Anderson's kids who came over to visit.
Steve and I ran 18 miles this morning along the BST up to Logan Canyon and then up the Logan River Trail and back. New run for me so I really enjoyed it. Got back to the motel 10 minutes before the breakfast closed, downed a pile of french toast, eggs, and sausage. Then spent about two hours in the pool after convincing Steve to skip church and bring his girls over for some more swimming. Glad I could be such a positive influence.
Drove home via the Golden Spike National Monument so we could do some train/history stuff. |
