I did a lot of driving this week.  In fact Tuesday I did like 7 hours, so lots of hours in the driver's ed car, but that is ok, we need the money.

Today (Sunday) was fast Sunday.  We started the day off with having a disciplinary court, an individual coming off of probation.  I learned quite a bit from listening to the individuals involved in the case. After that meeting at 7:30 we had bishopric, then PEC, then Ward Council, normal block of meetings, and then tithing. Today's count took forever, we didn't leave the church until 7:45, lots of flag money, plus fasting offerings.

Ran this morning from the Virgin Chapel out on Sheep's Bridge Road to the Quarry Trail and then back, pretty good 8 mile run.  It started to get pretty warm toward the end.

Pretty good run down the course.  We started at the half way point and had a decent pace the first 7 averaged 6:57, I then decided to push the pace the next 5 miles, ended with a 6:12 average for the 5 miles, and then had a slow mile to finish up at the park.

La Verkin Loop, my right knee has really been bothering me since the run on Saturday.  I feel like I stretched the ligaments wrong or something?

5k race in Craig took 3rd ran 20:10.  This felt more like a workout than a race.  I started off with Trapp and Brad Reidhead and kept pretty close distance the first 1.5 miles.  I could definitely feel the difference in altitude, also the course was a little slower because of the trails we were running on around Loudy Simpson Park.
