Went out to Crafton Hills College and ran on the trails. There are miles of trails out there that I had no idea were there. Only problem is they are a bit more uphill than the Bonneville Shoreline Trail in Ogden. Jogged out 3 miles. I felt like crap. It looked like a gradual uphill but when I turned around and started cruising back I realized why I felt so bad. So the way out almost killed me, but downhill on the way back was fun.

3.15 miles uphill included a bunch of stop and walk breaks. I am not used to running outside or up a mountain in the heat. 9:44 pace. 30:39 overall time 307 calories.

3.03 miles downhill on the way back. Cruised the whole way and felt like I was flying. Perfect downhill. Not too hard on the knees. 7:40 pace. 23:18 overall time, 305 calories.

Ran 1.5 miles and then my treadmill froze for some reason. The belt kept going, but the screen didn't change and my distance didn't go up. So had to restart the treadmill and choose another run.

3.10 miles in the Hawaiian Islands National Preserve. 21:55 overall time, 7:04 pace. 60 feet elevation gain, 376 calories.

1.2 mile hike with the girls out at Crafton Hills Trail Head.

Walked Aubrey the 0.70 miles to drop school. Then pushed Ada and Penny in the double stroller for 4.30 miles to finish out the 5 mile loop. First 2 miles running were downhill and flat, followed by uphill the rest of the way. So fun to be able to go out and push again. Loved it. Ada had a blast and Penny put up with it.

Can't find my watch right now for all the stats. But slower due to pushing and uphill. But I do think my downhill and flat miles were under 8:00 pace while pushing the double.

Walked Aubrey 0.70 miles to school.

Started running out towards Redlands Airport. Ada loved looking at the planes, and overall both girls had fun on this run so it was easy to keep going. Ada didn't want to be done when we got home. 5.17 miles (8:21, 7:25, 8:59, 8:20, 9:14) Forgot to stop my watch when I got home so my overall time and average pace are so high. When I saw them I was thinking-wait I was feeling like I had a really good run. Figured out why. Last .17 was supposedly run at 42:27 pace!

Walked Aubrey 0.70 miles to school. Then jogged for an additional 3.45 miles around the church loop. Curbs here are awful and you have to stop and go down, then lift the stroller up the next. Finally just decided to run on the edge of the road.

Had the briliant idea that Ada would take her new bubble gun and shoot bubbles as I ran. Well, we figured out quickly that the bubble gun doesn't work while running, or even walking. So I ran 2.40 miles, and let her get out and walk 0.13 miles. Finished the run by running 1.47 miles.
