7 miles around the neighborhood. Got into a small race up a hill with a cyclist. He just barely caught me right at the line. Next time I'll get him.

6.5 miles. From my house out north on Wasatch Blvd until the golf course, then turned around and back up to my house. The hip didn't bother me today. Just sore legs from Iron Strength.

Ran from  my house down around the retention pond for Big Cottonwood Creek and back up to my house.

8 slow miles. 2 in the neighborhood and then 6 out and back south on Wasatch.

Hip almost felt totally normal. Just a slight stiffness/ache towards the end when I tried to pick up the pace a bit.

5 miles on the Quarry Trail up Little Cottonwood Canyon. Was nice to be off the road. Have never run on trail before and I really enjoyed it.

9.5 slow.

Ran with my neighbor and he wanted to do 8, but wa running slower than normal. So, I just would run ahead a bit and go back and find him. Furthest I have run in a while and felt good. Hip got a little tight towards the end but no pain.

6.25 slow trail/road.

up Mt. Olympus trail to Bonneville Shoreline trail and then north for 2 miles or so. Turned around and ran back to my car. Was with my neighbor and had to wait for him to get back so I ran south along Wasatch Blvd to the edge of the golf course and then turned back around.

AM - 8 slow miles. My neighbor bailed at 1.5 miles due to stomach issues. This allowed me to speed up quite a bit since I wasn't with him anymore. Decided to just meander around the neighborhood and then out along Wasatch Blvd towards Little Cottonwood Canyon. Ran into another friend and ran 2 miles back to my house with him.

Felt nice to have a little bit of a faster pace. I need to start throwing in some speedy miles to test the hip and get my lungs back a bit more. Today my hip felt good. Still tightened up a little but not painful.

PM - 7 miles. Went up to Park City to run in the inaugural Silver Creek Invitational. It was a good time with great people. I thoroughly enjoyed the trail even though I freaked every time I heard a bush rustle. The big moose on lap 2 was a bit close for comfort. Thanks James for setting it all up.

1 mile solo and then met my neighbor for 7 more slow miles. Had to stop and start 2 times which bugged my hip for just a bit after each stop but then went away quickly.
