Monday - 10.25 miles.  RAD drug me up Butterfield Canyon.  That is one tough loop.  It is also more miles than I've actually run in a long time.  That woman is a beast.  Speaking of beasts, something had been dining on the rest of this little fella...

Tuesday - I needed to recover from that run!  Here's a photo from our run the previous week

:

Wednesday - flew back home to MR.  

Thursday - Errands, sleeping... and a nice 18 mile bike ride with MR in the evening.

Friday - 7.7 miles.  I was confident that after being in Utah for 3 weeks and all that crazy trail running I did with RAD, that the silly hills here would feel like a cake walk.  They did not.  I took a walk break at the turn around point.  

Saturday - 6.5 miles with MR at the research center trail.  Stopped to take some photos of grave markers at the super old cemetery off the trail so I could upload them to billiongraves.com.  That went well, until I got home and realized I'd brought home more than just photos.  Chiggers.  UGH.  Luckily there is a pool here.

And a photo of me up on top of that blasted canyon RAD helped me run up on Monday.  I was surprised I could actually jump at this point of the run (and it was only mile 3)....

Thanks Smooth! I am sad I wasn't able to see you either. I'll be back in a few months, so we will have to make it happen then :-)
