A wonderful run through Provo this morning. Our hotel is in South Provo next to the Town Center. I ran up to Center Street and then out to 900 East to see my old apartment when i was a student here. Ran through the east side of BYU campus and back out to 900 East. To my dismay, te old Deseret Towers student housing were completely gone. Weird. Ran by the MTC and then up around the Provo temple. Back down by the Marriott Center and Cougar Stadium before running past the blue track. I was hoping that ot would be open so I could run a few laps around the track for old time's sake. Back up Bulldog Blvd to the new Gordon B. Hinckley Alumni building which is simply stunning. Down the hill to the athletic facilities. Someone has propped open the door to the Smith Fieldhouse so I went in and ran three laps around the indoor track. Many memories of that building and the track.

The run was a great trip down memory lane.

For this BYU grad, reading your description brought back memories and was a great trip down memory lane for me also. Thanks for that. I should get down there and run sometime.
