Got home from vacation late last night. After running at Squaw Valley on our drive into California, I decided I wanted a break from running. A vacation from everything. No running but a lot of walking through Berkeley, San Francisco, along the Pacific Coast Highway, at Santa Cruz and in Marin. Nice trip and great weather while we were there.

This morning, I left at 8:45 and did a 2nd ave, Virginia St, 11th ave, City Creek, Memory Grove loop. Ran two faster miles from 7-9 in 6 a piece going down hill. 1:19:47 total with 850 ft up.

Mid to high 70s and warmed up a bit during the run. Felt good.

Glad you were able to enjoy the vacation. A little time off is a good thing. Nice run today!

sounds like a fun trip -- glad you enjoyed a little time off.

back to it this week though -- tough TM runs 3 days in a row!

I felt so fresh I thought I would drive myself into the ground. I want to see if I can make it four in a row tomorrow but I am also wanting to avoid the treadmill until the next snowstorm so we'll see what happens...
