This afternoon the kids started fitness club after school. I biked with Kelsie in the trailer so I could check in with my 3 older kids running different paces on the 2 mile loop. Then we biked, scootered, or ran the mile and a half home.
Abe 3.5 miles

Aaron flew to SLC again today to show and hopefully rent out a property we just bought in Draper. Its becoming a reality. We are expanding our rental business in Draper. Guess we better move there.
We are also in the process of screening rental tennants for our Boulder home. Makes me sad to offer this home to others. We have experienced many wonderful (some very difficult, but growth invoking) events here in Boulder over the past four years.
Its funny, we've moved every few years and I feel like each place we've lived has offered very unique and valuable educational experiences.
Aaron is a college dropout and jumped in head first as an entreprener at 24 years old. We've been here in Colorado on a Kennard family entrepreneurial adventure for nearly 10 years. We always tell people we are pupils in The University of Life. Boulder was definitely the PhD of learning experiences.
Hopefully our move to Draper will provide us the opportunity to apply our knowledge and experience and establish oursleves in a place longer-term. We'd really like to let our roots grow deep and are hopeful that Draper will be the place for us to do that.

| I have no interest in running today. Not because of the snow outside. Because of my aching body.
My shoulder, neck, and back are on strike today after a thoughtless accident yesterday.
I was playing a game of groundies with my kids and their friends at the park. While being pursued by the "it" child, I attempted a Tarzan escape from the twisty slide onto the pole supporting it. The adreneline of my escape had removed me from my usual state of carefull awareness of my chronic shoulder instability. The next thing I knew I was moaning on the ground after my shoulder had subluxed, releasing my grasp and droping me six feet down.
As usual, the subluxed shoulder becomes increasingly difficult to reduce with each passing second, so I didn't let many seconds pass before I was up on my feet yanking it back into place again.
Its been over a year since the last time I dislocated it, but I am usually very careful. I should have known trying to escape from 10 year olds on the playground equipment was sure to get me into trouble.
Add to the frozen shoulder a fierce bruise on the top of my head from drastically misjudging the size of the slide hole entrance and a bite in my lower lip from my fall. I am pretty beat up. As it turns out I am not as skilled as I thought I was. And groundies is not for the unskilled.

| 8 miles in the drizzling rain.
S. Boulder creek path was a mosh of mud and maneure. That open space has got to have some of the most fertile soil in Boulder County.

Ran one muddy section up towards NCAR. Thought I saw a bear in my peripheral. It was just a bush.

| Unfortunately my achilles and hip are complaining a bit, so I rode my bike instead. 13 mile loop. Up to Mesa, out to Eldorado Springs and back.

| Met up with Cindy for a 20 mile bike ride. Up to Eldorado and back around Baseline Reservoir.
Cindy was hit by a car while riding her bike a month ago and is still suffering pain. No broken bones, but major whiplash and nerve pain. We put so much trust in the drivers around us. The guy who hit Cindy was reaching for a water bottle on the floor and didn't see her slowing for the pedestrians in front of her. A good reminder to be careful out there...both while exercising and driving.

| Opted out of the workout with my friends this morning because I want to keep my hip and achilles feeling good. I should have built up some easy mileage before jumping into workouts the last few weeks. I'll do that now.

| Savoring the final month of my favorite running loops here in Boulder.
Devil's Thumb neighborhood loop today. If you look closely, you can see the actual Devil's Thumb (rock notch on the mountain in the middle of the picture.)

| Sometimes I feel bummed when I wake up with hip pain. And then I go for a bike ride and feel much better.
