4.25 miles ROLLING on the Jeremy Ranch Road finishing at Mormon Flats where Ann and Andy were hiking.

I found an excellent deep hole in the creek next to the road at Mormon Flats and soaked and swam in it after the run. Then I split a pizza and a chocolate milk from the Jeremy Ranch Store with Andy on the drive back home.

Abby is rock climbing with Steve Anderson and his kids today. I'm glad I hugged her and told her I loved her before she left. :-)

8.25 miles around Sugar House. Had to remind myself that, even though it's summer and I have more time, not every run needs to be EPIC.

Not really sure what I was doing out there today. Ate the F up to use an old Army term.

Started out wanting to do a 5k time trial. Came through the mile in 5:45 but aborted after 6 laps. Ran with Abby the rest of the way. Aimlessly wandered a few miles after that with no real purpose other than to log some miles.

Sub-par past couple days with regards to running.

On the plus side, Mike Trout hit two home runs for the Angels last night to pull into a tie with teammate Albert Pujols for the AL lead going into the all-star break.
