El Burro Blanco

My quads were quite sore this morning so I decided to sleep in.  I figure I am going to keep everything nice and relaxed until the first of November anyway so no big deal.  I ran 7 miles out towards the Arizona Strip this afternoon after practice.  The girls are excited to be running up at state.

5 miles in the morning.

2 miles in the evening.

A nice and easy 5 miles around Santa Clara this morning.

We traveled this afternoon up to Salt Lake for the state cross country meet.  I ran 2 miles with the girls running tomorrow to shake out their legs.  They are excited to get after it.

I ran around Salt Lake early this morning.  I started out our hotel and then went up to Sugarhouse Park and then up by the university.  It was a little cold but I had all the right gear so everything worked out okay.  It felt pretty good after about 10 minutes and I woke up.  Now it is off to state for the rest of the day.  Desert Hills Thunder Girls':  Go get 'em!

I slept in this morning because we got home from state pretty late.  I ran this afternoon from my house up into Snow Canyon on some dirt trails.  It was really fun and relaxing.  It is a good rolling uphill climb and I really had a ton of fun on this route.  I will most likely do it again tomorrow but I will bring Katey along while she rides the bike.

Same run as yesterday.  I will be doing this run quite a bit.  It is really fun running up through Snow Canyon on the dirt.  Katey came along with me on her bike.  She had a ton of fun as well.  Hopefully I can do another fun run in the morning.  I am still enjoying the weather down here.  It is absolutely perfect.

I knew I had a long day out in the yard doing yardwork so I rode the bike for a little bit and then was burning weeds, ripping out dead bushes and trees, and just plain getting dirty for about 9+ hours.  My legs were sore so I figured I should take the day off for running.  I have one more week of just kind of kicking back and then I will start bumping up the mileage again.
