I used the spin bike for 30 minutes and then did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

Duke and I ran 3 miles this morning before I had to be to work at 6am.  I wore my spikes on my shoes and I didn't slip once.  The first mile was cold but I warmed up after that.

Leslie and I met the group at Chase Bank on 114th for the run.  Todd Douglas was the only other person that came.  He decided to run later since it was so cold and Leslie and I decided to go back home and get Duke and then we just ran 3 miles.  It was very, very cold and I did not warm up like I usually do when I run.  We later read an email saying it was too cold for the group run and everyone should go to the rec center.

I used the Elliptical for 15 minutes and the spin bike for 15

Our group wasn't meeting this morning and I had to be to work at 6 so I just used the elliptical for 10 minutes before work.  I was too busy after work to do any exercise.

I think I used the spin bike for 30 minutes.

I used the elliptical for 30 and the spin bike for 30.

I did my arm weight exercises.

Duke and I ran outside for the first time this week.  It was 20 degrees but it wasn't windy.  The ground was snowy so I put my spikes on my shoes.  It was so nice to run outside. We did our usual 3 mile route.  Then I came home and cleaned and then used the spin bike for 30 minutes.

I used the elliptical for 15 minutes and the spin bike for 30.

I went to the Rec Center and ran around the track.  I was glad I could run, but it is sure not as fun as running outside.

I used the spin bike for 30 minutes before work.  After work and a short nap I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

I ran 3 miles this morning with Duke before work.  It was 14 degrees but I didn't get cold.  I sure like running outside better than inside.

My cold got the best of me so today I did not do any exercise.  I hope to feel good enough to run tomorrow.

Leslie, Duke and I ran our usual 3 mile course. We didn't get too cold even though the temperature was 14 degrees because it was not windy.  Three was just right for me today since yesterday I was feeling pretty sick.

I ran 1 mile with Duke and then I used the spin bike for 30 minutes.

After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises and then used the spin bike for 30 minutes.

I used the spin bike for 30 minutes and did my arm weight exercises.

I met the group at Riverton High for the run.  Only 3 others came.  We did our usual loop through the subdivision and then I did another loop while they turned north.  It was so nice to run outside.  Duke really loved it.

I didn't have to be to work until 7:30 so I got up at 5am and did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with my pushups.

I went out this morning to run with Duke.  I did not think it would be slippery so I didn't wear my spikes.  I was wrong and it was slippery so I came back and used the elliptical for 30 minutes and the spin bike for 30.

I didn't have to be to work until 7am so I used the spin bike for 30 minutes before work.

I used the spin bike for 1 hour and got a good workout.

  I used the spin bike for  minutes and then did my leg weight/stomach exercises and pushups.

Duke and I ran this morning before work.  It was perfect running weather.  We did our usual  3 mile course.

Our running group was meeting at 9:30 at the park across from the fitness center.  Leslie, Duke and I went at 9 and ran from my house down to the river bottoms and up and around the subdivision a few times and then met the others at 9:30.  Only Michelle, Aaron and one other person whose name I can't remember were there.  We ran along the River Bottoms road until we got to Parkway Palisades and Leslie, Duke and I ran up the big hill while the others  went to the trail.  When Leslie, Duke and I started our run we went on the trail for a few minutes and there were a lot of slippery spots so we didn't want to run on the trail.  After the big hill we ran down to the River bottoms again and out to 114th and back home.  We were all very tired.  This route has many hills.

When I got home from work today my daughter and her kids were here from Idaho.  I went to the dentist with them and them made them dinner.  After I cleaned the kitchen and my daughter and her kids left to go back home I used the spin bike for 30 minutes.

I ran 3 miles with Duke before work.  After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.

I used the spin bike for 30 minutes.

I went early to running group.  Duke and I did the 2 mile loop through the neighborhood and then went back to Riverton High to meet the others.  The only one that came was Rachel who ran over from her house.  We did the 2 mile loop again and then I had to head home to get ready for work.  Rachel went slow with me the whole time and I had a good visit.

I didn't exercise at all today because I had a cold and was too tired after work.  I did make it to the temple to go through with my niece who is going on a mission to Baton Rouge Louisiana.  Her brother is going on a mission to Tonga.

My cold got the best of me but I did do some house cleaning.

Leslie had the day off so she came over and she, Duke and I did our usual 3 mile course.  Leslie was very sore and bruised from going snow boarding so she turned around at the light at the Town Center.  It was a good run.  Now I am cleaning my house and them my husband is taking me to lunch.,

I finally felt good enough to exercise.  I used the spin bike for 30 minutes before work.

I met the group at Riverton High for the early miles.  I started off on my usual route through the subdivision with Duke.  Mike caught up with me about 5 minutes later.  He came for the early miles but was a little bit late.  I really enjoyed talking to him and catching up on his family.  When we got back to the High school none of the others were there yet so we ran past and turned in the subdivision again and the ran part way up the street and turned around and went back.  When we got back, Rachel and Carissa were there to we did the loop through the subdivision again.  Then I had to leave to get home for work.  After work and a short nap I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with my pushups.  I hope everyone is having a nice Valentines Day.  I have the best husband in the world.  He is been leaving Valentines surprises on my pillow every day this week.

I used the elliptical for 30 minutes before work.

I met the group at the park at the bottom of tithing hill.  There were about 7 other people and it was fun to see them.  We started north on the parkway trail for our warmup and then turned around after about a half a mile and went back to the park to pick up anyone that was late.  Then we headed south on the trail.  Duke and I got behind early because I am slow and he has to pee on every bush.  We went slow and stead;y and I even made it all the way up the big hill.  Some on the others were already heading back the other way but I kept going until I was almost to bangerter and then turned around and headed back.  We kept a slow and steady pace and when we got back Michelle M was still there so I visited with her fro a couple of minutes.  It was a good run.  Leslie didn't come because she went snowboarding with her boyfriend.

After work and a short nap I used the spin bike for 30 minutes and then did my arm weight exrecises.

I used the spin bike for 30 minutes.

After work I ran 3 miles with Duke.

Leslie, Duke and I ran around the block going east to 13th west and then north to 106th, then west to redwood and south to 114.  It was a good run and we made it before it snowed.

I used the spin bike for 30 minutes and then did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

I went early and ran for 15 minutes and then Mike and Peggy came.  I talked to them for a minute and then we headed out.  They went one direction and I went another.  I ran for another 20 minutes and then had to head to work.  After work I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

Today I was able to ride my bike outside. I rode my usual 6 miles course.  It seemed harder than it did last fall but maybe it was because the wind was blowing hard.  I really enjoyed riding outside much more the using the spin bike.

I had to be to work at 6am so I didn't have time to meet the group.  Since Duke has a sore leg I ran by myself at 5am.  I ran east on 114th and then south on 13th west to the church and then turned around and came back.  After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.

Leslie and I ran down from her house to the Run Gr8 running store to meet for their run.  There were lots of people there.  We were doing the 5 mile run.  I was very slow and got tired.  I told Leslie to go ahead.  Duke can't run with me for a couple of weeks so his leg can get better. Leslie came back for me and when we turned the corner I took off my warm stuff and so did she.  We ran east on 3600 to redwood road.  The leader of the group came back for me and Leslie went ahead.  We the ran north on redwood to the cemetery road and then north on 13th to the park and then out to redwood again and north to 126th and then west back to the store.  I enjoyed visiting with Heidi the wife of the store owner.  I made it back and was very tired.  We signed up for the free stuff and then ran back to Leslie's.  I'm glad I only went 6 miles.

I met the group for the early miles at the SJ soccer fields.  Only Kris was there.  I ran the 5K course going south.  I must have been very tired from waking up at 2:30 am and from hauling all the stuff from my storage auction because I went very slow and still felt dead.

After work and a short nap I rode my bike on my usual 6 mile course.  It wasn't as windy so I was able to go a little faster.

Duke and I met the group at Bingham for the early miles.  We were the only ones for the early miles.  We ran down 106th to redwood and then back to 2200 and then back to redwood and north to almost 98th and then back to Bingham.  I had to be to work at 6 so I couldn't stay any longer.

Leslie, Chrissy and I ran from her house to the Run Gr8 running store for the run.  We were suppose to wear green.  I couldn't find my green shirt so I just wore a green pin.  They gave out prizes and I won a hat.  Then Leslie and I ran the 5 mile course and Christine did the 3 mile one.  I went slow and steady and told Leslie to go ahead.  When I got the the road by the park Leslie came back to meet me.  She had a bloody knee because she had fallen down.  I ran with her the rest of the way.  They had cupcakes for us at the end.  It was fun.  Then we walked back to Leslie's.  Next week we are not running with the run Gr8 group because we are all doing the Kick Ash 5K at Wheelers Farm.

After work and a short nap I rode my bike on my usual 6 mile course.

I thought the group was meeting at Bingham to run on the track, so I got there early and ran up and down 106th until it was time to start.  No one came so I ran east on 106th to redwood and then north on redwood to 98th and then back.  When I got home I checked my email and found out we were meeting at Riverton High not Bingham.

I did an abbreviated ride because when I started it was already sprinkling and I did not want to get soaked.

When I got up to feed the cows this morning it was 45 degrees, so I wore a tank top and shorts to running group.  At least I had my gloves, arm warmers and head band.  There were only 4 others there.  We headed down the big hill on lampton.   We kept going on Lampton until we got almost to the end.  The others were heading back so I turned around too.  They were going back the same way, but I didn't feel like running up the big hill so I went out to 13th west and ran south back to tithing hill and then east to the church.  By the time I got back I was soaked. 

Three of my daughters, a son-in-law and one grand daughter and I ran the Kick Ash 5K this morning at Wheeler's Farm.  Several other daughters and grandkids were going to run but the snow and cold kept them away.  Luckily it stopped snowing by the time the race started but it was very muddy and cold.  I kept a slow stead;y pace and all my; family was ahead of me.  After about a half mile I could see my youngest daughter up ahead so my goal was to catch her.  I caught up to her and we stayed together for the first mile and a half and then I pulled ahead and beat her by about 30 seconds.  It was a fun run.  I think I was 48th out of about 100.  The wet cold weather kept a lot of people away.  It was a free race and we got neat shirts.  My grand daughter won a $50 gift card to Scheels.

I cannot not remember what I did.

I met the group at the church on 102nd and 40th west.  I was early for the late miles so I ran east on 102nd and then back to the church.  The group started out going north on 98th to sky drive.  I followed and then lost sight, but I knew where they turned.  I turned west on Sky drive and then ran west to the golf course and then turned around and headed back the same way.

I rode my bike on mu usual 6 mile course.  Either it wasn't windy or I am getting a little faster.  I did it in just under 22 minutes.

I met the group at the church on Tithing hill.  We ran east to Lampton and then followed Lampton north to the end and then ran west to the bottom of the hill.  Then we ran up and down the hill several times.  Then we followed Lampton back. When I got to the very big hill that ends on Tithing Hill I was so tired I had to walk part way.

Today the only exercise I am doing is helping my daugher, her husband and family move.  I'm sure I will get plenty of exercise.

Two days in a row without exercise.  I went to a baptism early this morning and was too lazy to exercise in the afternoon.

After breakfast I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.  Then I cleaned and went visiting teaching.  Then I rode my bike on my 6 mile course.  I must be getting a little faster because I did it in just over 21 minutes.  Then I weeded for a couple of hours.  It sure is nice to be off work and get a few things done.

Met the group at Riverton High for the regular miles.  There were 4 guys and 2 girls.  It rained the whole time but we still ran.  We did a loop through the subdivision and then ran up and down the street by the seminary.  I got a good workout but was soaking wet.

After work and a short nap I rode my bike on my usual 6 mile course.

Met the group at Country Crossing.  I went to the early miles.  There was a guy there that I didn't recognize but I talked him and he was not from the group but was doing sprints.  I ran out to 114th and then up to daybreak and then back and then up and down the road until the others came.  Then we ran around the subdivision and then out to 114th and then up to daybreak again and then I had to leave.

Leslie and I ran down to Run Gr8 for the run.  We did the usual 5 mile course.  Leslie went ahead and then I met up with a girl from my ward.  She was going slow so she ran with me most of the way.  She was recovering from and injury.  Leslie came back when I got to Riverton Park so Amy ran ahead.  Wow 5 miles even makes me tired.  We walked back to Leslie's afterwards.

I used the spin bike for 30 minutes.

I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

I didn't have to be to work until 7 so I ran my usual 3 mile route before work.  After work and a short nap I rode my bike on my 6 mile course.  It too 22.30 minutes.  The wind was blowing from the north so I got a good workout.

I met the group at Riverton Park.  I didn't go to the early miles but I got there about 5 minutes early.  It was raining so I just waited in the Car.  Rachel was waiting in her car too but Kris was running in the rain.  When it was time for the run to start the rain stopped.  Rachel and I jogged out to the street and then Cheris came so we went back for her and Kris got back from running in the rain.  We all headed out to 13 west and then south.  The group got so far ahead that I wasn't sure if they turned or went straight.  I went straight for 18 minutes and then turned around and headed back.  I was getting very hot because I wore my warm stuff and since it wasn't raining I was hot instead of cold.

Leslie, Christine, Bridget and I all met at Run Gr8 for the morning run.  Leslie and I ran down from her house. Bridget brought her baby jogger with her two kids.  We only went 3 today because we had to be home by 9 cuz Leslie and my husband Kent were going to get the new Bees.  I helped Bridget push the jogger.  I pushed at least half of the time.  Even though I only went 3.5 instead of 5 miles I got a very good workout pushing the jogger.

I used the elliptical for 30 minuets.

I was just getting ready to go the group run when I got called into work so after work and a short nap I rode my bike on my 6 mile course.

I rode my bike on my usual 6 mile course.

I didn't have to be to work until 6:30 so I ran 3 miles before work.

Leslie and I ran down from her house to the run great run.  Chrissy and Bridget me us there.  Leslie did 7, I did 5 and Bridget and Chrissy did 3.  About half way through the run the last girl caught up to me and I ran with her most of the way back.  She beat me by about a minute.  It ws a good run.  Then I ran back to Leslie's and drove home from there.

After work and a short nap I did my usual 6 mile bike ride.

I met the group at Riverton High for the early miles.  I got there about 10 minutes early and started out on the regular course through the subdivision.  When I got back to the school I saw Mike and Peggy's car so I turned around and headed back and met them at the light on 126th.  Then we ran through the subdivision on the east side and then back to the school.  I got a good workout and then hurried home because I had to be to work at 6am.

I rode my bike on my usual 6 mile course.

I was a few minutes late for the early miles and the group was just leaving when I pulled up.  I knew the course so I started out.  Kris came back to get me and then we headed out.  Of course I was way behind but I got back to the church before the others left on the regular run.  I had to head home so I could get to work at 6 again.

Leslie and I went to the Run Gr8 run this morning.  We were doing a new 5 mile route.  I started early and went slow and steady.  Leslie caught up with me right at the end.  Then we went back to Leslie's and rode bikes.  We were going to do a longer ride but Leslie started feeling very tired and then she remembered she had not eaten anything.  After lunch I went to Christine's new house and helped rip out carpet.

After work I took a short nap and then I weeded for a couple of hours.  Then I made dinner and rode my bike over to Leslie's and then we rode the big block. Leslie is a fast running but a slow biker.  She thinks biking is very hard and I think it is very easy.  I appreciate her biking with me even if I have to go slow for her.  I did ride fast on my way to her house.

The group was meeting too far from me today because I had to be to work a 6am so I ran down to redwood and then north to 106th.  When I was almost to Wingate I noticed a van going slow past me and then it stopped on the road by Wingate so I turned around and headed back home.  Better to be safe than sorry.

I rode the spin bike for 30 minutes because it was too cold to ride outside.

I met the group at RHS for the early miles. I ran the usual course through the subdivision and then when I got back to the school I ran along 27th south to 126th and then up a few blocks and then turned around and went back.  When I got back the others were there for the regular miles and I said Hi before I left.  I have to be to work at 6am the rest of the year because my boss's husband is int he hospital so she won't be back until next school year.

My daughter Jenny was here from Idaho so she came with Bridget, Leslie and I to the Gr8 run.  We all had a lot of things to do and Bridget had her two kids in the double jogger so we decided to just go three miles.  Bridget wasn't feeling up to par so I pushed the jogger most of the way.  We got a good workout.  Then Leslie and I rode our bikes on an 8 miles course finishing at my house so Leslie could help her Dad(my husband Kent) check their beehives.  Leslie is learning how to take care of them and will eventually take the hives to her house.

I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

I went early to running group and started out north on 13th west and through the subdivision past the church.  Then out to 126th and back to the other church where I parked.  Then I ran back out to 13th west and south to 126th and back and then I saw Peggy for a minute before I left to head home.

I did not do any exercise at all.  After work two of my daughters came to visit and then I went to my daughters house in West Valley to babysit.  When I got home I ate dinner and then went to my ARP meeting. (my husband and I are church service missionaries)

I met the group at Bingham for the early miles.  No one else was there so I ran down to 2200 and then north past the school and then on my way back I saw Kris.  I then went east to redwood and north to 98th and then back to the school.  I talked to a Peggy and Debbie and then had to leave.  After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.  Then I made dinner and rode my bike.  Then I went to my daughters new house and helped clean and start moving in boxex.

I rode my bike to Leslie's and then we went to the Run Gr8 run and ran 3 miles.  Then I rode my bike back home, changed my clothes and headed to Christine's to help her move.  I must have gone up and down stairs carrying boxes a hundred times.  Now I am very tired.

After work I took a short nap and then rode my bike to the person I needed to visiting teach.  Then I rode from there south on 13th west to 144th and then out to redwood and then north back to 114th.

I  met the group at the church in daybreak.  I was the only one there at first so I ran out to 114th and then up 114th to the bridge and then turned around and headed back.  When I got back Peggy was there so I ran with her for another 10 minutes and then headed home.  After work and a short nap I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

I ran 3 miles before work.  After work I rode bikes with my son Ben.

I did the Goldilocks Bike ride.  I was going to go 60 but the weather was very bad.  Right when I started out it started pouring.  I rode from Butter field park out to the Mountain View Corridor and then north to 90th.  I passed a few people and one girl caught back up with me a couple of time at the lights.  I wasn't sure where I was suppose to go after I got to 90th, so I headed east and never saw a sign to turn so I kept going to redwood and then I turned south.  It poured the whole time and I was frozen and soaked so when I got to 114th on redwood I turned and went home.  That was by far the worst bike ride I have ever had.  I took a hot bath and then my; husband drove me back to get the car and my lunch.

I ran the early miles and after work and a short nap I did my usual 6 mile bike course.

I rode bikes with my son down to his work at the district.  Then I rode back home.  I really got a good workout on the way there because it was all up hill. On the was back I mostly coasted.

I had to be to work at 6 so instead of meeting the group I just went running at 4:45 and ran from my house to redwood and then north to 106th and back.  After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.  Then I spent several hours weeding.

My husband  and I drove to Oakley Idaho after work on Friday.  We are taking my daughter and her husband to the Twin Falls temple and then to lunch on Saturday.  We started doing this with each of our married children.  After the first two my husband got a knee infection and had to have an operation so be took 4 months off but we are now on track.  Friday night we visited my daughter, her husband and kids and then Saturday morning she and I got up at 5:30 to run.  She went slow for me and we had a very nice visit.  Then we cleaned up and went to the Twin Falls temple.  It is small but very beautiful.  Then we went to Panda Express for lunch.

I rode my bike to Leslie's and then she, Chrissy and I ran.  I took a longer course on my bike so that I could get more miles.  While we were running we saw Lisa Dudley and her daughter running so we stopped and talked to them.  A little while later we saw my son-in-law Glen's brother running so we stopped and talked to him for a minute.  It was a good run and I didn't get too tired because we stopped twice and visited people.  Now I am getting ready for my family to come to a BBQ at my house.

I had to be to work at 6am and the group was meeting too far away so I just ram from my house out to redwood and then north to 106th and back.

I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

I did not run this morning because I have a large blister on my big toe.  After work and a short nap I rode my bike.  I went from my house east to 13th west and then south to 144th and then west to redwood and then north to 114th.  It was a good ride.

I had to be to my grandsons baptism in Tooele at 8:30 am so I did not run.  After we got back I took a short nap and then weeded for an hour and a half.  Then I went on a bike ride.  I rode east from my house to 13th west and then south to 126th and then west to 3600 west.  Then I went to the district to pick up my son who rode his bike to work.  We then rode out to 114th and then east past redwood and home.  It was a good ride.

I was lazy this morning and did not get up to run.  I just got up and went to work at 6am.  Then after work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.

I went on a bike ride with my son Ben.  He is a very fast biker and I really had to push hard to keep up.  I really got a good workout.   Then after a short nap we(Ben, Kent and I) went to see Ephriam's Resue.  It was very good.

I met the group for the regular miles at Riverton High School.  We did a 2 mile loop through the subdivision and then ran on the track. They were all doing 400's but I just did a slow and steady 3 mile run around the track.

I rode bikes with my friend Shannon this morning.  She is usually a little bit slow but today she was really pushing it and we made our 10 miles in 42 minutes.  It was a good ride.

My husband and I stayed over night at the Homestead for out Anniversary so I wasn't home to run with the Run Gr8 group.  When we got home my son and I rode our bike for a quick 4 mile ride.

I didn't do any exercise.  I had to be to Valley High at 7 to help with registration.  I stayed until 3 and then I went home, made dinner, cleaned and went to get groceries.  After that I was too tired to exercise.

I went to running group.  We met at RHS.  We did a 1 mile warmup and then ran around the track.  They did 400's and I did a slow and steady 3 mile run.  It was good to visit with the group.  Then I went to Valley High to help with summer school registration.

The only exercise I got today was hiking around with my kids, husband, son-in-laws and grandkids at the City of Rocks in Idaho.  We had a fun time.

I ran 5 miles with 2 of my daughters.  Jenny ran ahead and then kept coming back for us.  Bridget stayed with me until the last quarter mile.  It was a good run.

At 6am I rode bikes with Shannon.  We did an 8 mile ride and then I came home for a couple of minutes and then rode my bike to work.  I helped clean lockers and change combinations for 4 hours and then I rode my bike back home.  After lunch and a short nap I weeded for a couple of hours.

I met the group at the Riverfront Park for the early miles.  I was the only one early so I ran south to 114th and then back and then south again to 114th and back and then the rest of the group got there.  We ran on the parkway trail.  They did tempo repeats and I just did a slow and steady jog.  I was very tired.  I left at 6:30 because I had to be to work at 7.  After work and a short nap I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

I rode bikes with Shannon at 6am.  We rode from her house out to 13th west and then south to 136th and then west to 2700 and then north to South Jordan Middle which is just north of 104th.  Then Shannon headed home and I went to work.  After work I rode my bike home.

My sisters and I went to my sisters Cabin in Heber.  We slept over on Thursday night and on Friday After breakfast we ran/walked up and down the hills by her cabin.  I got a good workout.  Then We went to the lake and had fun floating around and swimming.  It is a good thing I did some exercise because we always eat a lot and have a ton of fun.

I met Shannon at 6am for our ride.  We rode south on 13th west past 126th and than Shannon got a flat. Kent came and picked us up and then I rode my bike to work and then back home after work.

Met the group at Riverfront Park for the early miles.  I was a few minutes early so I started off going south to 114th.  When I turned around to head back I saw the others running towards me.  I turned back around and we headed south on the parkway trail.  Then we turned around and headed north.  Then we went back to the park to pick up the others for the regular miles.  We headed north on the trail again and A turned around after about 20 minutes and headed back because I had to be to work at 7.

Shannon and I rode bikes at 6 am.  We rode south on 13th west to Bluffdale and then west on 144th to 3600 west and then north to 118th, then north to 104th and then Shannon headed home and I went to work at SJMS.  After work I rode home.  After a short nap and went to the Olympic Oval to see Dr. Toronto and I got a cortisone shot in my foot.  I hope that does the trick because it has been bothering me for almost a year.

I got a cortisone shot in my foot yesterday so I did not run today.  After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.

I met my youngest daughter Bridget at Riverton Park this morning at 5:30 so we could run the Riverton 10K course.  This is the first time she has done a 10K and her goal is to beat me.  My goal is to make it to the end.  We stayed together the whole was except the last 100 yards.  It was a too good run and I was glad to have someone to visit with while I ran.

I rode 13 miles with Shannon this morning.  Now I get to spend the day helping my daughter move.

Shannon and I rode bikes and she dropped me off at my work at mile 14.  After work I rode home and the house was locked and I did not have a key so I rode to my daughters house.

I met the group at River Front Park for the early miles.  No one was there except a guy on a motorcycle.  I locked my car and started running south.  I ran to Parkway Palisades and then turned around and ran back.  Kris Lundell was just running back also and we decided that no one else was coming.  We ran to 114th and he ran west up the hill and I turned around and went back.  When I got back, Peggy was just pulling up.  She and I ran south to 114th and then back to the park.  Then the others started coming.  I started off early running on the parkway north.  The group caught me before 106th.  I turned around when my watch said 45 minutes because I needed to be to work at 7am.  I ran back to the park and headed home.  After work and a short nap I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

Shannon slept in so I went on a 3 mile bike ride with my husband and then I rode to work.  After work I rode home.

I ran the Riverton 10K.  My goal was to make it to the end and I did.  My youngest daughter ran it too and this was her first 10K.  Her goal was to bet me which she did.

I rode bikes with Shannon.  She was tired from riding the Tour of Riverton the day before and the wind was blowing hard so we only went 8 miles.

I went to the run GR8 run.  I did 5 miles and I went very slow and it was very hard.  I wish running was easy like it used to be.

I rode bikes with my husband before I went to work.  I worked at Valley High registering kids for summer school.  After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.

I met the group at River Front Park for the early miles.  No one was there when I started so I ran towards 114th and then turned around.  When I was almost back I saw Mike and Peggy running towards me.  I turned around and we ran north to the ponds and they turned and used the restrooms and I jogged along until Peggy was done and asked her which way they were going.and I headed north on the Parkway trail while Peggy waited for Mike.  I ran almost to 106th and then turned around and headed back to the park.  Several others were there for the regular miles.  We turned at Parkway Palisades and then turned north on the next street.  Debbie caught up with me because she was late.  We both turned north.  The group went on the Parkway trail and I ran on the road back to the park.  I was very tired after running only 4 miles.

Shannon's bike had a flat so before work I rode bikes with my husband.  We went 3 miles, then I rode to work which is 3 miles away and then back home after work.  Then after a short nap and visiting teaching I rode my bike to my daughter Christine's.  She lives about 2.5 miles away.  She has an old Mountain Bike and she rode her bike with Leslie and could not keep up.  Leslie is a slow bike rider so I told her the bike must not work too good.  Anyway I rode to her house and let her ride my bike while I rode the old Mountain Bike. Boy was that bike a piece of crap.  After about a half a mile I said lets turn around this bike is killing me.  Then I rode my bike home.  I am sure glad I have a nice road bike.  Christine told her husband and he said she could get money out of their savings to get a road bike.  I am glad because she and I are doing a Tri at the end of August.

Met the group at Riverton High.  I was 15 minutes late for the early miles so I just ran a mile and then came back to Riverton.  We did a mile warm up and then I did 2 miles on the track while they were doing 800's.  Then I had to get to work.

It was raining this morning so I didn't ride bikes with Shannon.  When Ben came home I rode 3 miles with him.  I rode fast because I wanted to see how fast I could go 3 miles.  I did it in 9 mins and 27 seconds.  Then we got packed up and headed to Vernal to visit my daughter and her family.

I slept in today and then Ben, my granddaughter Cassie and I took their dog on a walk around the block.  Then we all went to Dinosaur National Monument.  We had a fun time.  Then we came back, ate lunch, took naps and visited for a couple of hours before we drove home.

I rode bikes with Shannon we did our usual course except instead of going all the way up 144th to 3600 we turned on 2700 and went north to the next street and then west to 3600.  While we were on that street we saw a red fox and a doe with a baby fawn.  That really made our day.  Then we rode on 3600 to 118th and then north to South Jordan Middle.  After work I rode home.

I was a little bit late for the early miles and Peggy and Mike had already left on the run.  I ran along the road to 114th and then back and did this twice which makes 2 miles.  Then the others were there for the regular miles.  We ran to Parkway Palisades and then did mile repeats up and down the big hill.  I made it up and down twice for 2 miles and then headed back to get ready for work. After work and a short nap I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

Shannon and I did our regular bike ride but we didn't see the fox or the doe and fawn today.  She dropped me off at mile 14 for work.  After work I rode the 3 miles home.

Met the group at Riverton High for the early miles.  Cheris was the only other person there.  We did our usual 2 mile course through the subdivision.  When we got back to the High School Rachel and Melanie were there.  We were doing a 1 mile warm up through the subdivision and then doing speed work on the track.  Since I had to leave early I just did the 2 mile coure through the subdivision and then headed home to get ready for work.

I rode the 3 mile course with my husband and then with my son.

I went to the Run GR8 run and ran 3 miles.  Then I went home and rode my bike to Christine's and then she and I rode on a 5 mile ride and then I rode back home.

I rode bikes with Shannon and since I did not have to work we just rode to my street.  It was a good ride.  I spent the day doing a good clean on my living room.  I really looks nice now.

I was a couple minutes late for the early miles so I just ran north on 40th west for 13 minutes and then turned around and ran back.  The others were there for the regular miles.  We headed west up the big hill but turned north before we got to the top.  I ran for 13 minutes and turned around and headed back to the car.  I only run 13 minute miles now so that is how I tell how far I go.

Shannon and I rode bike at 6:30 this morning.  She only wants to go 10 on Wednesday's and Friday's because she does weight training on those days at work and it gets her very tired.

Met the group at Riverton High for the regular miles.  I do not have to work again until August 18th.  We just ran around the track.  They did 800's and I did a continuous slow run.  I was glad I made it 4 miles.  Then I went home and did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

I rode bikes with Shannon this morning.  She thought we were going at 6:30 and I thought we were going at 6 so when I got to her house she wasn't out yet so I called her and then just rode around while i was waiting for her.  I rode about 2 miles while I was waiting.  Then we did our 10  mile ride south on 13th west to bluffdale and then home on redwood.  It was a good ride.  Then I weeded and then went to my daughters to swim.  I did not do laps I just played with the kids.

My daughter Christine and I tried a practice Triathlon.   We swam 300 meters in her pool, then we biked 12 miles and ran 3.4.  The swim and bike were easy for me but the run was hard.  I beat Christine in the swim and went slow for her on the bike and she went slow with me on the run.  We got a good work out.

I biked 17 miles with Shannon and then I ran 3 miles with Leslie.  I went slow a few places for Shannon and Leslie went slow on the run for me.

I met the group for the early miles.  I did 4 miles and then went to substitute at the summer feed.

I rode 8 miles with Shannon.  It was very windy and we were both tired so we only went 8.  Then I came home and did my arm weight exercises.

Christine and I did our practice Triathlon.  We swam 300 meters in her pool, then biked 12 and ran 3.

I rode 10 miles with Shannon.  We went and a pretty good pace and it felt good.

I went to the Run GR8 run at Daybreak.  We ran around the lake.  I was going to go 6 but after 3 miles my hip was hurting.  It has been hurting off and on and I wasn't sure if it was the running, biking or swimming.  I'm pretty sure it is the running so I better take it a little easy so I can do the Triathamom on August 17th.

Shannon and I rode 10 miles.  I wanted to go more but she got tired because the wind was blowing.  Then I came home and took Duke for a short walk and then ran 3 miles with Leslie.

Met the group at O Roi park and we ran along the parkway trail.  They were doing two 3 mile tempo runs.  I only wanted to do 3 miles because I have a hip muscle that has been bothering me.  I was a long way behind and I saw a red fox cross the trail in front of me. I love seeing wildlife.  After the run I went home and did some cleaning and then I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

I rode bikes with Shannon and we did our usual 10 mile route.  I felt tired this morning so I was glad we were only doing 10.  Then I came home and did my arm weight exercises.  Then I cleaned the house and at lunch.  Then my son wanted me to ride bikes with him so we did the 3 mile course.

Christine and I did our Tri training this morning.  We did not swim because her pool cover was off the slider.  We ran first and did our 3.5 mile course and then we rode our bikes on our 12 mile course.  I was glad we ran first because it was a lot easier.  We got a good workout on the bikes because it was very windy.

I rode bikes with Shannon.  We did our 10 mile course.

I rode bikes with my husband and son and then I went to the Run GR8 run and ran 3 miles.  Then I went to Leslie's and helped with her sprinklers for two hours.

Shannon had a headache this morning so I rode bikes with my husband and we went 4 miles.

Met the group at the church on 102nd and 40th west.  We did a warm up going east on the street and then when we got back to 40th west we went south. They were doing a loop past the Lake but I only wanted to go 3 so I ran south up the hill to the temple and then turned around and went back.  When I got home I took Duke on a small run.  He really loves to run but gets a sore leg if he goes too far.  Then I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

I rode 10 miles with Shannon.  The wind was really blowing so we got a good workout.

I met the group at Riverton High for the regular miles.  We ran through the subdivision out to 126th and then back to 3200 west and then north to 118th and then back to the street that ended on 2700 west and then back to Riverton.  I only ran 3 and then went home.  I am doing the Triathamom on Saturday and my hip has been bothering me so I did not want to over do it.  When I got home I did my arm weight exercises.

Shannon was too busy with work to ride bikes so I rode alone.  I did the usual 10 mile course but since I didn't ride to Shannon's it was only 9 miles instead of 10.  I rode as fast as I could because I did not have to wait for anyone.

My daughter Christine and I did the Triathamom today.  It was at the Kearns Rec center.  We did the swim in the pool and then biked and ran outside.  The swim got me a little more tired than I expected but I was still able to pass about 20 people on the bike.  The run was very tiring.  It started out on the grass up hill.  I had to walk for a while, but most of the people were walking.  Christine beat me by 7 minutes but I got to the finish before her because I started the swim before her.,  I won 1st in my age group but there were only 3 people in my age group.  Christine finished 97th out of 300 and I finished 146th out of 300.  I'm glad we did the Triathamom.

I had to be back to work for two days so I rode my bike to work and then back home after.  Then I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

I met the group at the church on 2200 and 98th.  I was a few minutes early for the regular miles and so was Julie so we both ran up 98th for a while and then back to the church.  When the rest of the group came we ran towards Bingham and then ran east on the Oak something drive to 27th west and then I ran north back to 98th and then back to the church.

I rode bike with Shannon.  We did our usual route except when we got to 144th Shannon headed home on Redwood and I kept going west to 3600.  Then I went north to 118th and then east to 2700 and then north to 106th and then east to redwood and then south to 114th and the east to my house.  It was a good ride.  I really love riding bikes more than running because I can go a lot farther and not feel tired at the end.

I met the group at Riverton High School for the regular miles.  We did a mile warm up through the subdivision and then ran on the track.  I did a mile on the track and then I took Rachel's dog and did the 2 mile loop through the neighborhood.  Michelle Margetts was there for the first time in a long time so I visited with her for a while after the run.  It was nice to talk to her again.  She has had several injuries and hasn't been able to run too much this summer.

I went to my Family Outing at the Heber Valley Girls Camp so the only exercise I got was walking back and forth between out cabins and the main pavilion and I also got some arm exercise rowing our canoe on the lake.  We really had a lot of fun.  After we got home and put everything away, Ben and I rode our bikes on our 4 miles route.  We rode fast and got a good workout.

After work and a short nap I rode my bike on the 10 mile course.  I rode fast because I didn't have to wait for anyone.  It was a good ride.  Then I picked beans and made dinner.  After dinner I will bottle the beans.

Met the group at the church on 2200 and 98th.  I was late for the early miles so I just ran west on 98th and then back to the church.  For the regular miles we ran south on 2200 and then back to 98th and then we did a loop through the subdivision.  We saw a lot of Bingham Cross Country runners including Michelle  M's son.  The group turned south on 2700 and I turned north and ran to 98th and then back to my car.  After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.  Then I picked tomatoes.  Tomorrow I will make salsa after work.

After work and a short nap I rode my bike on my 10 mile course.  Since I was riding alone I rode fast and was able to do it in 35 minutes.  Then I came home, made dinner and made Salsa.  Then I went to my daughter Christine's and rode our 12 mile bike course with her.  She isn't as fast as I am so we did it in just under 1 hour.  I realized while I was biking that I'm beginning to love biking the way I use to love running.  I can bike twice a day and then I really do not feel very tired.  When I was younger it was that way with running.

Met the group at the South Jordan soccer fields.  I was late for the early miles but early for the late miles so I ran 1 miles before the rest of the group got there.  We were doing mile repeats up Rustic Road but we first ran up Canterwood to 2700 and then north to Rustic Road.  We ran down and then up and then I ran down again and then back to the soccer fields.

Leslie and I went to the Run GR8 run and I ran slow and steady for the 5 miles.  Afterwards we went to the shake place across the street for a free protein shake.  We both got strawberry banana and it was very good.

I was just getting ready to leave for running group when I got a call that I needed to be to work a 6am so I only had time to run 1.5 miles.  After work and a short nap I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

After work and a short nap I was going to go on a long bike ride.  When I went to get my bike the back tire was flat.  I pumped it up but I was worried that it would go flat while I rode so I only went 4 miles.

I ren 5 miles with the RunGR8 group.

After work and a short nap I rode my bike on my 17 mile course.  I got a good workout.

Met the group at the church on 102nd and 40th west for the early miles.  I was early so I ran down 102nd for about 5 minutes and then ran back.  When I got back Peggy was there and we went across the street to the park and ran around the trail.  I kept getting sprayed by the sprinkler so about the 3rd time around I went to 106th and then ran back on the sidewalk.  I still got sprayed.  The next time around I turned around and went the other way so I missed the sprinkler.  For the regular miles we ran south on 40th west.  The group was going to 114th but I needed to get to work so I turned around at the top of the hill by the temple and headed back.  After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises and then I picked beans.

I met the group at the park across from LIfetime Fitness.  I was the only one there at first so I ran around the trail around the park.  When Peggy got there, she Aaron and I ran on the parkway trail.  For the regular miles we ran up and down the Hill at parkway pallisades.  It is a long steep hill. Luckily I had to get to work so I only had to run up and down once.

I rode my bike 4 miles.  I went very fast.

I met the group at Riverton High for the early miles.  Peggy was there early so she and I started on our usual course through the subdivision.  After we had gone about a quarter of a mile she turned back to get the others.  I kept going.  When I got about 3/4th of the way around the block it felt like I had a rock in my shoe.  I stoped and shook out my shoe and then started on again.  It still felt like something was poking the heel of my foot.  I ran easy on that foot back to the school and sat in my car and took offk my shoe.  I could feel something very sharp poking though the heel of my shoe.  I could not get it out so I decided to be done for the day.  When I got home I could see that I had stepped on something sharp and it had gone through the heel of my shoe.  My son pulled it out wiht his needle nose pliers.

After work and a short nap I went to the temple.  Then I had time for a short quick ride around the block.  Then I ate dinner and my husband and I went to the prison to teach our ARP class.

I was feeling very tired on my run today.  I ran with the Run GR8 group and did my usual 5 miles.

I met the gorup at the SJ Soccer fields.  I went early and did the course once and then when the rest of the group got  there they were doing a 6 mile tempo and I only had time to run 2 more miles so I ran to Rustic Road and up and back. After fork and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.

Peggy was the only one at running group early miles and I talked to her for a few minutes as we ran.  She turned north on 3200 and I kept going around the block.  I my second time around I saw Peggy coming back to meet the others for the regular miles and told her I was just going to run around the block again.  After I went around the block the second time I headed home to get ready for work.  After work and a short nap I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

Since it was raining after work I used the spin bike for 20 minutes.  I sure like biking outside better but winter is coming so I need to get used to the spin bike.
 

I went to the RunGR8 run and did the 5 mile course.  I don't know if it was because the weather was cool, but the run was a lot easier and I didn't feel dead at the end.

After work and a short nap I rode my bike on my 10 mile ride.  It was a good ride.

I got to the SJ Soccer fields just after 5am and ran the 5K course.  By the time I got back the others were there for the regular miles.  We ran out to 2200 and then north to Rustic Roads.  I ran up Rustic to 2700 and then turned around and headed back so I could get ready for work.  After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.

I only had time to ride 4 miles after work because I had a dentist appointment.

I met the group at a park in Day Break.  We ran up through Daybreak. I got lost and even lost my sense of direction.  I eventually made it to 118th and then was able to make it back to the park.

I did my usual 10 mile bike ride.

The race did not start on time so I sat in the RUN GR8 bus for about a half an hour.  We ran part way up  Parkway Palisades and I went slow and steady.  On the way down I was able to pass a few people.  I ran steady the rest of the way.  I don't know what my time was because I left before the results and I forgot to look when I crossed the finish line.
 

I rode my bike on my usual 10 mile course.

I met the group at the church on 102nd and 40th west.  I was the only one there.  I ran south to 106th and back and then I saw Peggy and Mike.  They crossed the street and started running at the park.  I crossed and ran at the park also.  After the rest of the group got there we ran north to 98th and then west past the Glenmore Golf course.  I turned around just past the gold course and headed back.

I was off work today so I met Cheryl's run group at the West River Front Park.  We ran to the big HIll in Parkway Palisades and then ran up and then part way down we turned north and ran through the subdivision.  Then we ran through another subdivision and through a trail that leads to the road by the cemetary.  Then we ran up and down the hill by the cemetary 3 or 4 times.  Then we ran past the cemetary to 106th and then west to the next street and then we weaved through the streets of the subdivision.  Then we ran back out to 106th, back past the cemetary and south on cemetary road until we got to the dirt road that leads back to Life Time Fitness and back to our cars.  I got a very good workout.  Thanks Cheryl.

Leslie, Chrissy and I went to the RunGR8 run this morning.  It was a good run.

Leslie, Kent and I went to the RUNGR8 mustache run last night.  It was a bit chilly but as soon as I started running I was not cold, in fact by the end of the run I was hot.  Leslie and I ran the 3 mile run and Kent walked the Mile run.  He was finished with his scone and hot chocolate and rode the bus back to RUNGR8 and he came back and picked us up. There were about 200 people doing the run.  It was fun.

I met the group at the West River Front Park.  Only Mike and Peggy came for the early miles.  We ran to the parkway trail and headed south.  While I was running along I got a phone call and it was my boss and she needed me to come in early.  I ran for a few more minutes and then headed back.

I rode my bike on my usual 10 mile course.  It was windy so it took me 37 minutes instead of 35.

I met the group at the South Jordan Soccer Fields.  I was late for the early miles so I just ran south on 2200 to almost 114th and then turned around and headed back.  For the regular miles we ran from 2200 along the park road to redwood and then back several times.

Leslie and I went to the RUNGR8 run.  I started off early because I needed to hurray.  I was doing really well until my water pack broke again.  I had to stop and pick everything up and then had to carry everything.  Leslie caught up to me and helped me carry some of my stuff.  We made it back and I hurried home to get my Garage sale set up.

I rode my bike on the usual 10 mile route.

I met the group at Country Crossing Park for the early miles.  I ran out throught the subdivision to 114th and then ran on the trail up to the top and then back down.  When I got back it wasn't quite time for the other miles so I ran back and forth along the road. Peggy, Mike and Kris were at the early miles.  There were about 13 people at the regular miles.  They were going up and around the neighborhood but I just ran out to 114th and up again. After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.

Today I used the spin bike instead of riding outside.  I rode for 15 minutes and then too Duke for a walk.
 

I didn't have time to go to run group because I had to be to work at 6 so I ran at 5am and ran from my house to 13th west and then south to 120th and then back.  After work and a short nap I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

Leslie and I went to the RUNGR8 run.  It was cold and snowy but I knew I would get hot when I ran so I wore my tank top and shorts with my head band, arm warmers and gloves.  It was a little chilly going south into the wind and snow but when I turned west and then north I got warm and had to take off my head band and push down my arm warmers.  It was a good run. 

I rode my bike on my usual 10 mile ride.  It is sure nice to have such good weather.

I had to be to work at 6am so I ran by myself.  I ran from ,my house to redwood and then north on redwood to 106th and then back.  After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.

I was a little bit chilly and rainy after work so I used the spin bike.  I still got a good workout.

Met the group at Riverton High School.  I was the first one there for the early miles so I started out throught the subdivision on the usual course.  We I got back to Riverton there was still time before the regular miles so I turned around and headed south, ran to 126th and then west for a few minutes and then turned around and headed back.  We did the same course through the subdivision but when we got to 126th the group turned around and I headed west to 3600 and then back to the school so I could get home and get ready for work.

I went to the RUNGR8 run this morning. It was 23 degrees so I wore long lycra and a short sleeved shirt with my arm warmers, gloves and headband.  I started off early and Leslie caught up with me at 3600 west.  She stayed with me the rest of the run.  It was fun to visit with her.  When we got to the road by Stamp-In-Up I was hot and had to take off my warm stuff.  It was a good run and I enjoyed visiting with Leslie.

I used the spin bike for 30 minutes.

I didn't have time to run with the group because I had to be to work at 6am so I just ran my regular 3 mile route to 106th and back.  After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exercises.

I used the spin bike  for 30 minutes.

I met the group at the church on 102nd and 40th west.  I was the only one there for the early miles.  I ran south on 40th to 106th and then back around the church.  There still was no one else there so I ran north on 40th west almost to 90th and then turned around and headed back.  The group had already left when I got there but I could see them running east on 102nd so I headed that way.  Part way down the street Lisa Dudley caught up with me.  We kept going east until we got to a street going north and we could see the runners heading this way.  When we were almost caught up them I turned around and headed back.  They all caught up and passed me.  There were 18 runners which is a lot for Thanksgiving.  We regrouped at the light and I headed south on 40th west.  Everyone caught up and passed me except Nicole, Michele's daughter.  I ran with her for about 10 minutes and then I had to turn around and head home so I could get my turkey on to cook.  We had a nice Thanksgiving.  We had 25 people.  Only 2 of my daughters and their familes didn't come because they were going to in-laws this year. 

I rode the spin bike for 30 minutes.

I picked up Leslie for the RUNGR8 run.  She was doing 7 and I was doing 5 so I ran by myself.  It is so wierd how my legs have forgotten how to run.  About the first half of the run I have to think about how to lift my legs and where to place them.  Then about half way through the run they seem to work normally again for a while and then off and on the last mile they quit working again.  I am glad that I can still run.

I used the spin bike for 30 minutes.

I met the group at the church on 124th and 13th west for the early miles.  I was the only one there for the early miles.  It was snowing but it was not sticking to the ground yet.  It did the 2 mile loop through the subdivision and then ran back to the church.  It was not quite time for the regular miles so I ran back and forth past the church.  There were 8 people besides me for the regular miles.  We ran down Tithing Hill to the parkway trail and started north.  It was a blizzard and the snow was coming from the north so we turned around and headed back up the hill.  When I got back to the church I headed home to get ready for work.  By the end the snow was really sticking and I was even starting to get cold.

After work and a short nap I used the spin bike for 30 minutes.

I went to the RUNGR8 run with Leslie.  It was cold but not as cold but it was 20 degrees.  Leslie was running 7 with Christine so I started out early.  It was already starting to snow.  The first mile going south was a little bit cold but when I turned east it wasn't as bad.  The snow was not sticking at first but by the time I turned east it was so I had to walk a couple of times.  I made it back to RUNGR8 and I almost fell down in their driveway.  When I got back they told me I had enought miles(100) to get my Tech shirt so I got it and I really like it.

After work and a short nap I used my spin bike for 30 minutes.

I ran 3 miles before work.  After work and a short nap I did my arm weight exrcises.

My foot started hurting alot at work.  I barely made it through.  When I got home I iced it.  I thought I would have to go to the doctor but after my nap it was feeling a little better.  I started taking relafen.  I didn't do any exercise.

My foot was feeling a little bit better but not enough to exercise.

Today I used the spin bike for 20 minutes and then did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.  My foot is not hurting today.

I met the group at Cheris's house for our annual Christmas Eve run and breakfast.  It was a beautiful day for a run.  I got to visit with Eric while we ran.  Thanks Cheris for the nice breakfast.

Met the group at the West River Front Park.  I went extra slow today whenever I saw any ice because tuesday when I took my son to the Dr.  I slipped on some black ice and hit the back of my head.  I didn't slip today and it was a good run.

I went to the RUNGR8 run but I only did 3 miles because my siblings were coming to my house for a party at 11am.  I ran the whole way with another woman that was as slow as me.  It was nice to visit while we ran.
