pm--10 Guacamole Trail, sweeping that part of the Zion 100. It's a beautiful trail. By the end, the bags of markers slowed things down a bit, but it was good overall.

pm--5.25 Ran from my sister's house, after my nephew's bday, up onto the Heights and down around to Tuweap via Lava Cove. When I got home, I didn't think my fam was home--they didn't answer the door when I knocked--so I lay down on the grass under the stars. I'm not sure anyone does that enough.

pm--6.5 These last two days the runs have felt hard, and I keep it pretty steady. Tonight I went up and ran the old Swiss Days route and threw in 2ish miles, dropping through the 7s on tired legs. The trails beat me up yesterday. I need to get out in the hills more often.

pm--5 A nice run up by the Canyons w/ my neighbor. We might talk each other into running the marathon. That might be the kind of kick in the rear end that I need.

am--10.50 A slow burner up into Ivins and along SC Parkway w/ the neighbors. These double digit runs make for a good Saturday, especially when they happen early. It was also nice running in a drizzle.

pm--8 Out to the highway and back via the bike path near Pioneer Parkway. It was a bit windy, but overall the run was great. I know I've said it before, but an 8 miler is some kind of sweet spot for me.
