Quick run over River Heights along part of the TOU course.  Beautiful day, but a little big chilly.

River Trail from Stokes up to the Switchbacks.  Beautiful day for a run.  Averages 10:00/mile pushing the stroller on the way up and 8:00/mile on the way back down.  Not a bad day overall.

River Trail again.  Went with my buddy and brother.  Achilles bugged me yesterday a bit, but felt much better today.

Ran the Temple Fork road toward Ephraim's grave.  We didn't quite make it because the stroller was a little heavy to be pushing up the steep grade.  Really pretty up there.

Quick run through River Heights.  Didn't want to stress my ankle too much since I am planning to do all of Green Canyon on Saturday.  Pace for today was 8:12/mile.

Quick run around Logan. Ran from my house to the Library and then through River Heights.  It was quite warm and beautiful for a run.  Too bad that the canyon is all muddy. Today would have been perfect for a canyon adventure.

Green Canyon run this morning.  It was absolutely beautiful up there.  It was a little wet the last mile, but not too bad.

Nice run from my buddy Tyson's house to First Dam.  Really picked up the pace on the way back.  I felt sick afterward because of how fast we had gone on the last 2 miles.

Great run up the River Trail today.  The first two miles I too pretty easy and ran at about 9:00/mile.  The last two miles I really opened up and gave it all I had.  There was one runner on the trail ahead of me that I wanted to catch if possible. 

I focused on my hamstrings to see if they could give me a little more power in my strokes and I really opened up.  Ended up doing about 7:30/mile while pushing the jogging stroller during the last two miles.  That felt awesome.
