9 miles or so at easy to moderate pace in 75-80 degree heat after hiking 4+ miles at Big Springs with my family. The hike was very enjoyable. We took a couple of hours and enjoyed the beautiful outdoors. My family then dropped me at Vivian Park and I ran home from there. It was early afternoon and pretty hot. I stopped at the water fountain at Timpanogos Park then walked up to the restroom. I sat at a shady table to fix my sock and ended up sitting there for a while watching squirrels, butterflies, and a hang glider briefly, and cooling off. That was nice. In contrast to the last 3 miles home from the canyon in the heat with little shade and some uphill mixed in. No regrets. It was still an enjoyable run and a good workout.
