It was great to do an "easy" long run today.  Our group went to the Jordan Parkway.  Desiree and Jenny went ahead and leslie and I took a little slower, easy pace.  That was great for me.  It was so good to catch up with Leslie and  hear more about her 1/2 marathon at Bryce and hear more about how Paul is doing (her son-in-law).

Generally I don't like doing an out and back route but i don't mind it on the parkway.  It doesn't seem the same and it's so nice to run that mostly flat course in the shade.  it would be great to live along there.  It was fun to see other runners that we knew.  We met Kim and her friends, fellow blogging runners.

Stats from today: 8 miles in 1:40 with an avg pace of 12:31.

 I finally got a picture of me on my blog.  This was taken this morning on the Jordan River Parkway.  I was with my friend, Leslie, our mother hen.  Her husband, Harold, was biking the trail with his grandson and stopped to take our picture.

Went on a short, 1 mile bike ride with my hubby.  We were just testing out our bikes that have not been in working condition for awhile.  He got them tuned up because we are going camping next week.

That picture must have been taken this morning! It was so fun to meet you gals! Keep up the good work! Maybe we'll "run" into each other again soon! Good luck on the "golden ticket". Let me know what happens!

Lisa, good to see your training going well. If I would have known, I would have ran with you two for a while. The parkway is a great place for an early saturday morning run.
