Guindani Trail

I went to a pretty lame job fair in Sierra Vista this morning. On the way back I went to Kartchner caverns park and ran a trail. It was a 4.2 mile loop mostly outside of the park on the west end in the Whetstone mountains. The trail had about 900 feet vertical change and that combined with the 4800 foot elevation made the going pretty tough for me, but it was very scenic out there.

Lakeshore Bridge and Studio yoga

After lunch today ran down the canal to the bridge and back, 3.43 miles. It was hot, my heart rate soared and my body temp was thru the roof, kick ass. The evening went to a Marco class, went great, had a nice chat with KJ after.

This morning went to Teri's class at the gym again, same as always.

LAF yoga

This morning after a big blow up at the unhappy Helm house, I ran the DR Lake route with a slight modification, at the end I ran around Carriage Lane park to the frontage road and back to the canal, about 4.2 miles.

Walmart and LAF yoga

This afternoon during football I ran thru neighborhoods to Walmart and back. Talked to the wife for 5 mins while she worked, about 5 miles. This evening went to Taylors class. The instructor from the previous class came in when it was supposed to start and said that she had a seizure and they might send a substitute. Almost everyone left, I did about 45 minutes of yoga on my own and left. A few other people did the same, worked up a good sweat. I hope she is going to be OK.
