July 4th would normally be a 5k run, but I was helping with a ward breakfast, cooking bacon and pancakes with Scott. So, we did a run yesterday morning instead. We started at the top of Big Cottonwood Canyon and ran back down to the mouth of the canyon. The portion we ran was exactly a half marathon. We ran together most of the way, but the last five miles, Scott got in a groove and moved on ahead and finished in 2:01 and I came in at 2:09, which is actually my second fastest 1/2 marathon time. The whole route was downhill which is nice training. It was beautiful weather and we saw a lot of cyclists on their way up the canyon....ugh, that looked tough!!
