We are having a blast camping on the beach.  My wife is very happy that our camp ground has hot showers and private bathrooms.  I made her sleeping conditions so confortable, she may want to stay longer.  But, all good things must come to an end.  We went home today.  The 3 year old was jubulant, but rest were bummed that the week was over.

My run was again very beautiful and traveled north to see more sites.  When I came to a dead end of cliffs and tide pools, I got too close and slipped into the water.  I did pull out a star fish that was the size of a volleyball.  I ran back to camp at a pace better than my marathon pace goal. (7:45 per mile)  I'm feel very good today.

I was feeling like I needed a faster than normal run today.  My marathon goal pace is 8:35.  Today I ran my 10 miles at 8:42.  I figure I ran my pace since I chose to run a very hilly course with one monster hill (10:00).  I felt good all the way to the finish.  I could have ran it faster, but I knew I was going hiking later with the kids up Angles Landing in Zion's National Park.  I went hiking with the kids and I carried the 2 yr old in the carrier backpack.  AND... MY LEGS DON'T HURT!!  Great day!!!  Mainly because I ran a good time, ate at Wendys for lunch, hiked a beautiful trail with my family, and ate at the Oriental Buffet for dinner.  : )  I will have ice cream before bed!!!
