Personal:

Married with 4 kids - always thought I was healthy and fit - but only the past few years have I really gotten that way!

I mostly run for fun and adventure - looking to keep healthy while doing some longer stuff!

I love yoga, climbing, general fitness, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and staying active and able!

Didn't make it out in the morning, but decided to run along a similar path - up the switchbacks of Freedom Hills park to the Firebreak road, but then I decided to go random - along to Ricks Creek and up to the waterfall, climbed up and over and ran along the upper trail/roads back around to the switchbacks and down.

 Still having some foot pain... along with some popped out ribs and a dislocated  clavicle... just trying to keep life interesting I guess!

 Hopefully I can figure out this foot pain before the Buffalo Run!

Up to flag rock with Dorsimus. I am TIRED today. This time change hasn't fit in for my body yet.  Still the time up to Patsy's Mine and then Flag Rock really wasn't too bad.

 

Then we hit the North Facing canyon and had this:

  

Parts of the snow were really deeper than my knee- that leg in the snow is straight!

Slow going, but my feet didn't hurt quite as bad as they have lately... hopefully that continues in that direction for another week - Buffalo Run next weekend!

Nice run on the BST from East Kaysville up past Adams Canyon and back with dorsimus and my wife. Beautiful weather - so nice to see dirt and the sun with only a few small patches of snow!

 

Only one week until the Buffalo Run!
