Easy run from my parents' house in Mount Vernon before church. Pretty warm morning, even though it was still cloudy. Must have been 65. Ran the old SVC trail loop, which is full of nostalgia from high school XC. But it's a short loop, and I added a little tour of one of the new developments, the neighborhood is packed with them these days. Legs felt great, good to be getting into some kind of rhythm. 25:05

Really good morning of basketball. After months of struggling to find 3-on-3, we've got a full group. We had our first big court, 5-on-5 game today. Ran one that way, lost one guy then three games of 4-on-4 on the smaller court. Good run.

Early morning basketball at the Y. No full court this time, but almost an hour of 3-on-3.

Finally back to Port Orchard on a Saturday, it had been months. Met Chris Lemke in the dark at Banner Forest, and we wound around the trails in there until the sky started to lighten. The ran held off, and the canopy helped, until the last few minutes we got a little wet. Slow starting becasue of the darkness and a lot of roots on the initial trail, but we managed a decent pace once it lightened up a bit. Legs really felt good, I noticed my hip flexor but I think that's more my lack of trail running, with stepping to the side and irregular steps, etc. Didn't hurt or anything. 59:46 

Then breakfast at Hi Joy, saw some people I haven't seen in months, which was nice.
