Nice 16-miler with Kim, my longest run for quite a while.  Kim actually started a bit before me and got in 18.  Ran around the usual SF areas for about 10 miles then headed over to Springville where we had parked the car last night.

Thankful for the clouds that showed up just about the time the sun came out. After a quick trip to Mickey D's for some breakfast we went to the Hobbler Half finish line to watch runners come in and chat with friends.

It was fun seeing you and Kim at the finish of the Hobbler Half last year. We need to plan on doing that one again next year. Sounds like you're both doing well on your long runs at this point. My wife and I have missed our Saturday runs the last couple of weeks in getting things done in preparation for our daughter going into the MTC this week. We'll be back on the roads again this coming Saturday. Thanks for your great example.

Always nice to get a long run in! Good job!

Thanks for the comments guys. Kerry hope to see you on the roads sometime. Maybe some Saturday a bunch of us can get together for a nice Provo river trail long run!
