AM- 9 miles, with 2 faster.

PM- 10.5 miles with Cody and Joe up Green Canyon.  A local biking store had set up a demo tent, so there were lots of mountain bikers on the trail.  Otherwise, easy and uneventful.  8:31 avg pace with almost 1500 ft climbing. 

My all-time record for most Mon to Wed miles is 59.  I'm at 58.5 so far this week... not bad, supposing I've only run 4 times.

We were discussing trail runs, and I commented that it had been a while since I had done a long run on roads- I'm doing all trails these days.  I reviewed my blog to see if this was true- sure enough, it's been even longer than I imagined.  My last long run (i.e. 18+ miles) that was mostly on roads was October 24, 2009, when I ran the Ogden Valley 50 miler!  In other words, I haven't done a long run on the roads for almost 9 months!!!
