I forced myself to take four days off since I never reall had a full break after Grandma's. A nice easy 6 miles this morning, right past a house in the neighborhood that caught fire this morning. Looks like it started at the electrical box outside. Fortunately, it looks like it only damaged the garage.

Off to Utah for several days to visit the wife's side of the family.

Easy 8 miles up the Provo Canyon Trail and back down. Left Seattle yesterday in sunny 80 degree weather and arrived to rain in SLC. Funny. Hooking up with Cody and Paul to ride up to the 15k tomorrow.

Opted not to make the 45 minute drive to Logan to run the Blacksmith 15k. A combination of not wanting to get up at 4:30 and really wanting to give mesyelf a true break from the last training cycle led me to that decision. So I just ran an easy 10 this morning near the place we are staying in Laketown just south of Bear Lake. It was a beautiful run through Round Valley. I saw more deer, dogs and rabbits than cars. It was even a tad chilly. I did notice the 6,000 feet of elevation a bit, but nothing too big.
