AM:
On the way to laird to meet up with the girls for a run I tripped on a rock somehow and now my knees and hands are stinging. Only Eleanor and the Randalls showed up, so we did a 3 mile loop then I added with Eleanor back to 9th and she had to go home, so I ran a little longer then went home to get a drink, then decided to do my longer run later tonight because it was getting hot.
PM:
Well, running later was both good and bad. First off, it was a lot cooler and almost the perfect temperature. However, it was raining. Oh well. I ran up to foothill over to thunderbird and then went along wasatch over by the zoo. By now the wind had picked up. Then I turned right on foothill and took it to guardsman where I started the Shriners run. I stopped at the drinking fountain and got a quick drink, then went down the street that goes right by Shriners hospital down. It turned into some University street right above 13th and I took it all the way to the tracks by the U where it ended on 5th south so I went up to guardsman and took Military home. Added to 12.25, l averaged 8:27 with my fastest mile being 7:12 which seems alright to me because of the wind, rain and hills.
