Personal:

Have been active my whole life, but turned my focus to running in 2006 after deciding to run a marathon.  I really enjoy the training aspect and staying healthy, but mileage has been on the decline over the past 3 years due to work commitments, so focus has turned away from races and more on just staying fit enough to still enjoy getting out.  Moved from Utah to Texas in October 2016 with my wife and 3 month old babe.

Small workout this morning.  Did a lot of stretching along with planks, side-planks, bird-dog, some core, and running pose.  Then took Griffin on a long walk.  Will try running tomorrow.

Nice loop around town, the did 30 push-ups with the door gym, sit-ups, and a few other core exercises.  Avg. 7:32 per mile

PM  Mountain Bike 17.13 miles in 1:54:31 = 5 miles easy

Went biking at Glenwild after work and it turned into quite the ride.  After 9 miles of climbing there was a good 3 miles of FAST downhill switchbacks, then some fun XC back to my truck.  Beautiful weather out for long rides like this!

Took Griffin out for 2 miles, then did 6.02 at a cruiser pace.  My legs are a little sluggish today, but feel good after a hard cross train last night.  Avg. 7:22 per mile for the 6.02.

Ran Round Valley trails with Lacy and Griffin. Did a bit of stopping along the way to let Griffin catch some shade and take a drink. A fun run on a pretty day.
