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

Tuesday morning run with the Davis County Crew. Steve, Ryan, Jeff, Sam, and Twinkies.

Headed on the lower terrace trail over to Shepherd Creek then up from there up the Francis Peak Trail for a couple miles and then back down. Sam went back a bit earlier, Jeff and Steve continued on to Bair Canyon, and Twinkies went ahead on the way back so I'm not sure where he went, but his car was gone when I got back.

Ryan and I took the upper terrace back. Beautiful morning run!

Third run in a row with some major vert and major quad-busting downhills. That is a lot more tiring! I gotta work on those downhills though I'm not as fast as I was last year.

Spring 5k at my work - ran it in 22:29 - got first place.

But it was a bit disappointing because the competition just wasn't there.

They did a raffle for prizes and the top finishers didn't get anything - not that I wanted anything and I'm okay with my time... it's just I didn't have anybody pushing me even though one guy that normally beats me significantly didn't try because he's running a half tomorrow.

Oh well. It was a good run!

Little Black again - started from the Capitol this time, and took some different trails so it ended up being slightly shorter, but almost an hour faster too!

Nice TAUR run!

Definitely felt better this week.
