Recovery run. My legs are still a bit tender, but feel good enough to run. My right heel is bruised from worn out shoes. I guess the NB 790's weren't all the best. They were a great pair of shoes at first, but just didn't last with the amount of abuse I put them through.

Another recovery run. It was warm this morning, and the sun wasn't even up yet. It's going to be a hot summer.

Busy day. I wasn't able to get out for a run until 6 p.m. I ran up the Parrish Creek all the way to Skyline drive. This trail is an uphill grind. Some of it I was able to run, but there were section that I had to walk. About four miles up the trail I found that some adventurous bikers had built a series of jumps. One of which looked very dangerous. No bikers were out today. though. I made it up to Skyline Drive in 1 hr 30 min. I wanted to continue on to Bountiful Peak, but I didn't have enough time. I came back down in 50 min. This trail has a lot of swicthbacks that make it really fun to run down.
