Ran on my lunch break today. My schedule dosen't always accomidate being able to do this, but it's nice when I'm able to. I think I will be able to tomorrow also. The first bit, almost a mile, is on the gravel and train tracks but after that I'm on a path by the river. They have been working on connecting all the paths and there is a new section almost ready to pave! It will be great when it's all connected. You will be able to run from the mouth of the canyon, (This will be park of the Ogden Marathon) to South Ogden.
On the way out the river looked like illusion silk. The silk that has different colored warp and weft. So that as it wrikles and shifts it there are two colors. The river looked like the bronze with lavandar/blue in it. It must have been an effect from the sun and my sun glasses. Because on the way back it just looked like churning chocolate milk. Something that I have been craving lots after my runs LOL. There were a few kiakers on the river, and best of all I ran into my running friend. She lives down by this area but I thought she would have been finished with her run. She ran me back to the railroad tracks. It was great to see her! Better run then yesterday, but my hip is still bugging. I get a massage tonight so I hope this helps. Then off to see my sister, for a sister date. Tonight we are making cards.
