From BHSU campus to grass xc repeat loops and return. Talked to Billy Mills in the salad bar line at lunch and he described the last 400 of his Olympic 10K to me. Very cool. He spoke in the afternoon and it was an incredible session. I stood and applauded...nobody else did...but he was awesome.

The camp run on the Mickelson Trail is always my favorite. Drove up to the Kirk trailhead to start. Started out very easy at the tail end of pack. Tough uphill climb all the way to the turnaround. I was solo after about 3 miles. Got to turn and it started to rain for the next couple miles. Gorgeous rainbow over the hills and saw 3 deer on the trail. Almost a spiritual experience. I was the last guy back and got in the creek for a little bit. Went out in 8:30's and back in 7:30s.

Worked late and ran downtown at dusk. Hadn't done that in a while and it's really cool to see the fountains and the energy of people milling about, falling in love, dancing, walking 9 abreast on the pedestrian bridge. All of it was lovely.

Weather front came through on my way to the race and made it a bit more comfortable to run, even at 86 degrees. Course was a bit long, lots of people thinking they ran a slow race for a 5k. Almost old home week, ran into several friends. Trudy, race director extraordinaire, Bob V, student manager when I was in school, state patrolman now, Jack M, long time running buddy, Wayne W, another long time running buddy, and Jason B, used to officiate him about 20 years ago, now the principal for the Tigers.

Lots of lightning on the way home, just like a fireworks show without the colors.
