am—4.75 Urie-Grass run w/ the last kids club of the season. It was a fun time on the grass. I love how the personalities play off of each other.

pm—2.25 I thought about taking the afternoon off because my lower extremities are achey, but, mentally, I needed a win.

am--6 Waltzed around the parking lot for 10 minutes, waiting for Jada. She never came. :( Finally, headed up the Grapevine road. I like that climb. Al Brown rocked it today. 

pm--1.5 Normal neighborhood heat run. 111 degrees today. Emma rocked it. 

Earlier this week, I finished A Study in Scarlet by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. It's the first Sherlock novel and includes a lengthy middle section about Utah and the Mormons. Everything ties in at the end. I promise. 

I am also just wrapping up Candide by Voltaire. Lots of terrible things happen, but Candide has trouble shaking the philosophy of his first teacher--"It all works out for the best." Like I read somewhere, you laugh out loud as you read it, not because it's funny but beacuse you don't know what to do when more terrible things come to pass.

am—10.5 Long run from the fields to Warner Valley and back. Like everyone else, I thought the run turned out to be quite a pleasant jaunt. We had a good crew that stuck together the whole run.
