Nice fun 10 mile trail run along the murdock with the one and only Garret Marsing. It was a great run, and he's got such a good attitude about everything, glad I can call him my friend.

Super awesome conference session trail run. I just put the headphones in and streamed conference while I ran, and I found this super cool 7.3 mile loop! That wasn't the plan, but it was a ton of fun!

It was really weird running while fasting, well, mostly it was weird after not to drink any water. STill a great run with Garret Marsing and Jared. Talked a lot about their sheep herding experiences haha

Nice trail run/walk with Maliea down in St. George. It was fun being with her! Also, we beat my parents 3 times in a row in pickleball, so you know that's a good day!

Treadmill run. I kept speeding the pace up as I went along, just wanted to crank through it.

Found a really fun trail loop that I'm going to call the lower battle creek loop, cause you go up battle creek canyon, but you don't loop over the saddle of baldy, you go under it. It was great.

One of those days when I just REALLY didn't want to run. Started out pretty crappy, and I was only going to go 3 miles, got feeling better as the run went along and found this cool cement pipe to sit on and think for a minute. Then I ended up "running" up to the G, it was way steeper than I thought, and just a brutal climb. Glad I did it.

Ran the lower battle creek loop with Johnny Foote! It was great to spend some time with him, and just talk with him. He's such a good guy, and he's got such a bright future ahead of him.

hiking around gunlock and exploring. I'm just guessing the mileage, I honestly have no idea, but it was a very active day.

Lots of hiking today. We hiked out of our campsite at gunlock, then did the Red Cliffs hike, super fun, fairly hot, and lots of bushwacking. It was great haha. Did it with Jake, Sam, and my dad.

I met up with Joseph Moore, and we ran up Jacobs Ladder, almost to the summit of Lone Peak. There was too much snow to really safely summit. We were in snow for probably 5 miles of this run, and it was the worst kind of snow, where you could run on top of it for a little bit then out of nowhere you've collapsed and its knee deep, and you trip hard, cause the top layer is still hard. I don't know if that made sense, but it was the crusty kind of snow that just makes it hard to run, so you have to walk more. Anyway, took up about 4 hours, with about 5000 feet of climbing. It was awesome to see Joseph and catch up with him. He has such an awesome spirit of adventure. He's not in quite as good mountain running shape as we was when he lived in Utah, but he also hasn't been able to run mountains very much, so that totally makes sense. Good guy, I love running with him.

Finally did the loop that I've wanted to do for a while now. Started at the house, ran up dry creek to the saddle of big baldy (what a slog!!) then ran down and over to the top of grove creek. This took some studying of the maps and trusting my gut, but it wasn't too bad to figure out. I filled my bottle up partway at the top of grove creek from the beautiful spring there, and then blasted down that canyon. Overall, great run, really tough. I didn't bring quite enough water, but it was overcast at the end thankfully, and it took about 2.5 hours to do it, although that doesnt' count some of the times I stopped my watch to look around and pee and stuff.
