Personal:

Have been active my whole life, but turned my focus to running in 2006 after deciding to run a marathon.  I really enjoy the training aspect and staying healthy, but mileage has been on the decline over the past 3 years due to work commitments, so focus has turned away from races and more on just staying fit enough to still enjoy getting out.  Moved from Utah to Texas in October 2016 with my wife and 3 month old babe.

I did nothing all week....feelin lazy, working way too much, it's dark & cold out side, etc. Made up for it today though.  Lacy and I are in Grand Canyon and hiked to Phantom Ranch(at the river) via the South Kaibab down, then took the Bright Angel trail back.  17 miles total wtih ~4,800 vert gain.  We managed to git it dun in 8:50:00.  Super proud of Lacy for commiting to go all the way to the bottom and back.  No small feat for sure!

Noon

33 mile ride in 1:50:00, took foothill/Wasatch blvd/Ft union/2300E/Van Winkle/800#/S Temple and back vis 1300E.  My calves are feeling the uphill at Grand Canyon last week, so decided a chill ride was better than a run.  Super nice out!
