I'm in Tampa for training and linked up with Steve Thompson (one of the other participants).  I found out that he is tappering right now in preparation for a full Iron Man at the end of the month.  We ran along the cause way and got a good sweat going.

Steve is in his late 50's and told me he started running late in life.  His marathon PR is 3:13.  He was fun to run with.  PA 8:30

Today was the BH Stake Family Fun Run.  David did really well coming in 4th over all and Mary ran with Kate for 1 mile.  I checked the course distance on the Garmin and realized the course is a bit short of a 5k.

It was a good run though PA - 6:57

I woke up early and ran from NY NY up to the Wynn and back.  I enjoyed running up and down the cross walk steps to get in a bit of elevation.  It was another beautiful clear day in Vegas.  It is easy to want to get outside when the weather is inviting!  PA 8:55
