60-minute run Thursday. We didn't go as fast as usual because the time trial is coming up, but still a good run. We ran to Timpanogos High School and on the way back Riley's knee started to hurt. He told us to tell coach he would be back a little late and then we heard a cry of pain, but we still ran back. We finished the run, did strides, strechted, and we're getting ready to do weights when we realized Riley wasn't back yet. Tyler, Matt, Brian, and I hopped into Brian's Bronco and went to look for Riley. We found him on the east side of Valley View, living off of some grapes he found on Tanner's Trail. That was pretty funny.

That grape bush has nourished me on many runs. It has also given me the runs, if you know what I mean.

Good luck on the time trial. You've been putting in solid mileage and hitting the speed workouts. Hopefully your time trial reflects that.
