Took it easy today. No running, went to the gym for some various XT. They had School of Rock on the TV so I hung around until it ended so about an hour of stuff including treadmill walking with incline cranked, stair-stepper, eliptical, and bike.  

Probably very little running for me this week and nothing hard/fast or very long the rest of the month. Time for a mid-year break and take it easy for a few weeks.

Nice 5 mile power walk with Kimi down on the river trail. Saw a few critters including at least 3 very loud whistling marmots and 1 very quiet mink.

Slept in a bit and didn't get out the door until around 7.  Ran with Kimi down around the river bottoms on about as pretty a morning for a run as you could hope for.  Sun shining bright, temps a bit cooler than usual, and the wind wasn't too crazy. Nice!

Thought maybe there wouldn't be many runners out with WBR going on this weekend but there were actually quite a few folks out enjoying the day.
