HHS at 7:15 with Fritz, Kotter, Daniel and Adam. A bit chillier than expected but I was overdressed and my main issue is that I am in terrible shape. A 7:08 pace is working for me.

BST with the docs at 12:30. Cool breeze but quite warm. I don't want the temperature to get to the 70s. I would like some global cooling. 8:27 pace

BST Dry Creek run solo at noon. Temperatures close to 70 but a nice cool breeze. I felt strong enough for being slow and out of shape. 8:45 pace and 61:16 overall.

Got up early on a Saturday (late for James) to run with James to Dude Peak. I set my alarm and left it downstairs. Luckily my internal clock new what was up and I woke up right in time. The dude is 10 miles round trip with 2300 ft of climb and fantastic views of Salt Lake above city creek. This is not a well used trail beyond the first mile and you would need a guide or a good plan. It is also steep enough in spots that no bikers would do it - at least from the starting place we were at. James's youngest had a feaver so he was on call and after 3.3, we had to turn back. Still a nice run and a beautiful morning. I will have to get to the peak next time and abide.

At noon with temps in the high 50s and intermittent light rain, I ran the with Adam and Nate along the BST. Nice day. My legs are still super flat and the guys say it is due to the Sunday bike ride.
