AM run - 3.5 miles solo then 4 with Kim. Nice morning, huge moon, but of course the stiff canyon breeze to keep things from being too comfy. But all-in-all a nice start to the week. I think all miles this morning were in the 8-10 range. Planning 4-5 more at lunch in the bright spring sunshine.

Noon Eagleview 5.2 mile run with Paul and Bill R. An absolutely beautiful spring day. Had a great run with great company. Ave pace 8:19.

Did some circuit/weights afterward minus any abs stuff.

There are so many nice things about running in Spanish Fork, that if it wasn't for the stiff morning winds everybody would move down there and then the open fields would turn into subdivisions :) We get some pretty good morning winds coming out of American Fork Canyon, but by ordinance they're not allowed south of 105th North.

Be sure to wish Paul a happy birthday today!

Kerry since we don't seem to have hardly any open fields anymore I think everyone moved here already!

Thanks for the reminder on Paul.

Kerry,

They needed to pass that ordinance here! We should have read the fine print a bit better. Oh well, we do love it here! And it helps if we call it a "breeze".

That wind must miss Cedar Hills and head down my way, because I was standing still on 100 East in AF the other day! The wind makes you tough unless you have lost a bunch of fitness like me; Although, I hate running into it!

Tom- that is nice that you and Kim can have a nice spouse run once in a while.

Nice sun this afternoon, nice moons in the morning. I ran in that yucky wind. Had to be a spoiler in the group.
