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.
