Out-and-back past Clinton pond.

Total miles: 5

Average mile pace: 5:52

Mile Splits:  6:07, 5:53, 5:50, 5:44, 5:30

 

This was actually a solid run for my current condition.  I used to be able to consider these easy miles, but these were definitely hard mile.  The goal was to average under 6.

Side Note:  While running by Clinton pond I ran through a flock of geese and one of the geese was apparently drunk because he flew right into my gut.  It kinda hurt...

I wanted to go for a trail run but because the wife is really pregnant and had had a long week watching our boys I felt too guilty to take off on a run for several hours, so I settled for what I thought was the next best thing and took my 18 month old (Payson) and 3 1/2 year old (Mitchell) for a hike.  

I have done this several times before and have gotten pretty good workouts in doing it because Mitchell is usually a pretty good hiker and Payson usually lets me carry him.  I usually have a really good time with them while we're at it.  But this wasn't the boys day.  Mitchell was complaining about being tired and hungry from the get go, and Payson didn't want me carrying him, so I didn't get much of a workout in at all.  

As a positive note, we went up Taylor Canyon a little ways and it was absolutely beautiful.  Oh and the wife was happy because I gave her 2 hours of freedom.
