What a great day!

I don't have to be at work until noon today, so I was able to run after the sun came up.  It was an amazing 61 degrees, overcast, and a mild breeze.  I headed out south of town and then took a trail off in the desert that I have not run before.  It was a real fun trail to run.  There were some steep up and downs, but the trail was decent without much loose gravel or jagged rocks.  It ended up making a big loop about 4.5 miles long.  The rock formations were real cool out there.   Then I headed back home for a total of 11.3 miles.

Now I'm just playing hooky with my sweetie while the kids are at school and I still have an hour and a half till work.  I think we'll go out for an early lunch together.  That should be fun.

Right on, Rhett! Doesn't it feel good to get away from civilization. I wish there were some dirt trails that close to me.

Paul, you know I understand.
