Hardest run EVER!!  First 4 were fun and easy with Janet with a slight breeze behind us, then on the turn around it got windy and we felt like we were running in place for most of the time, yikes!  We walked home about the last mile!

A busy day planned and a celebration to celebrate Remi & Belle's 8th grade gradation this evening!

Early morning jump rope & weights before running with my girls.  Running group had officially ended after our last race, but the girls want to keep running together at least two days a week...  So blessed!  They did AWESOME!!  68 degrees!

Hiked to Havasupai Falls, back to the village and back again!  My calves were KILLING me by the time I sat down, I didn't realize the walk in would be as sandy as it was, it was like walking on the beach for 15 miles, FUN!

Walked back out of Havasupai Falls, up hill, sandy, ouch!  We stopped for a bite to eat in Flagstaff, I could barely get out of the car my calves were so tight.  Dang, and I thought I was in pretty good shape... NOT!!!!

Feel better than I thought I would today.  Was hoping to go for a walk to stretch things out but a BUSY start to a BUSY week before heading on our California vacation next week!  Hope to walk tomorrow then run on Wed, Thurs. & Friday before going to Tucson for the weekend!
