AM - Craig and I rode bikes around the Gunlock loop (51 miles for a 16.3 ave) and then out to Sand Hollow Reservoir(22 miles at a 16.0 mph ave). We did a 0.4 mile swim out to the rock and back. The Kokopelli Tri was going on at the same time. We stayed for several hours to cheer on friends and club members. We then rode home(24 miles at a 19.5 mph ave).

The Gunlock loop we did in the dark and had a fabulous time... no cars, no other people, we were chased by dogs when we rode through the town of gunlock, but our time was slower due to lack of sight. We had lights but mostly so others could see us. We ate a breakfast burrito when we passed through St George and then rode the Ironman bike course backwards out to Sand Hollow. The ride back I stepped it up and felt really good for the entire ride home, with a head wind! We pushed it hard on the return hills too!!!

PM - Ran 7 miles home from the restaurant where Cathy and I ate mexican food. It was mostly downhill and I just ran comfortable.  First 3 miles had a good drop to it. I held back so as to not over do it since I have done so much today. Next 2 miles was slightly downhill and the last 2 miles was a false flat with a couple climbs to it.  I seem to go fater as I continued on... felt good!!
