Great trail run today. It is so nice to run in the daylight. I saw a deer that even had a spike on it this morning. The weather was perfect today. My last mile and half were pretty fast sup 8 min mile. The foot was a little tight by the end but not bad. Later int he day I went on a hike with the family up the mountain and my foot was super tight then and started hurting pretty good.

Today Fei was visiting us and wanted to try and go running. So I took him with me it was a really slow run I was able to go a little but faster then him by going up and back down the side streets. I averaged 8:52/mile. I am sure Fei was closer to 12/mile.

Did a little over a mile (half with Lucy and the half with Chase) jogging slowly with the kids this morning that was really fun. I am excited for when they get older and we can run together. They did pretty good they were able to run for most of their respective half miles. I then did 4.5 by myself a short stretch on trails to get some vert. I was able to go after after having warmed up.

Later went on a hike with the kids up sombrero peak they did great Lucy made it all the way until we had to turn back because of time.
