Ran with my friend Kerry in the area around her house in Colorado Springs.  I was huffing and puffing more than usual because of the hills.  But it was a good run.

Met Burt this morning (don't be jealous) at an early 5 am (at least it was early for him.  For me, it was still 7 am).  He drove us over to South Mountain in Phoenix.

It was a tough run!  Anyone who thinks Burt is a wimp would think twice when they saw him powering up the trail.  He ran the whole thing.  I stopped a few times to walk.  So I guess I'm the wimp.

Here's the view from the top:

But here was the best looking scenery on the mountain today:

And then I ran the whole way down.  Slowly.  I'm looking forward to a flat run tomorrow :)

I think that's what Burt said we went.  Second day in a row with the Burt-meister.  We ran along the canal by his house.  Another good run with good company!  It was nice and easy compared to yesterday's run...

No pics today, but I did get to meet Mrs. Burt.  She's certainly a nice lady.  Especially because she has to put up with Burt (ha ha).

But seriously, Burt's not as creepy as his comments sometimes suggest :)

So that ends my tour of bloggers.  Maybe next time I come to AZ I can run with Bonnie!  Next time we'll go back home the extreme southern route and maybe I can meet Joe and his family too!
