Payson canyon downhill run in the morning. I think I finally have my canyon legs, no complaints from my quads or anywhere else after the steep downhill miles at moderate pace.

Mostly walked today but did manage 2 gentle run miles. Very little if any soreness after the canyon run yesterday so I think my downhill legs are good to go.

So nice to see my Kimi girl doing better after battling back problems the last while. We went out in the morning and had fun watching all the speedy Spaniards run by.

Nice morning to be out albeit a bit smoky with all the forest fires. My endurance is still kind of wimpy on these long runs but I was happy to get to 16.
