Slow recovery run on the lagoon trail in Farmington. It was nostalgic because I used to run on this trail when I was younger. The first 0.5 miles was pretty stiff then I loosened up and the rest felt good. AP: 8:48

Ran up wade road. I did it pretty fast. I wasn't trying to go super fast I guess being back from altitude made a difference. My AP was 7:49 the only mile slower than 8 min/mile was the 3rd which was the steepest and that mile was still 8:07.

Ran on the local trail this morning. I took a little different route which was easier (less vertical). All miles were under 10:00/mile.

Did some exploring ran down the gasline road by the house for awhile then cut across the dessert for a bit until I ran into another road. It was a nice relaxing run. it would have been nicer if it was cooler. I really miss the mountains.

When I got home we went on a run as a family I pushed the little ones the older kids rode their bikes and my wife and I ran for 2.7 miles. It was fun though super hot.
