This trip saw temps in the 80's pretty much every day and it was just beautiful! Got some golfing in with dad, sat by the pool, ate some good food and hit up a Sun's game.
I sort of took this week as an active rest week just to let the legs relax a little. I ran 5 miles Wednesday on an out and back from my parents house and sandwiched that between two hikes of Squaw Peak in Scottsdale. It had been about 17 years since the last time I had hiked that peak and it was very nice. Not too many people, nice weather, and a nice little change of pace for my quads. I believe it's about 2.5 miles to go up and back.
Came back to Tri-Cities Friday and got 5 more treadmill miles in to finish out the down week and I'm looking forward to ramping back up this next week (weather permitting). The only race that I think I can safely sign up for right now is the Wenatchee Half Marathon in mid April because I'm not sure if I'll be moving for work. Don't wanna waste money on registration fees if I can't do the race.

Great picture...wish we could have joined. The active rest week is going to have you coming back real strong. Keep me posted if you find a race on the east coast!
