Nice long run on a beautiful morning. Lots of runners out today it was great to see everyone. Ran with a variety of folks for 10 or 11 miles then did some solo miles. 

Headed to Ephraim/Manti now for the Scandinavian Festival and also for my 30 year HS class reunion. Has it really been 30 years? Dang!
