12 from office on to JRPT up to Redwood Rd, down .5 mi and back.
Coming up on the Jordan River Narrows road I came up upon 2 young girls (5,7-ish)pushing a little boy in a stroller (one not wearing shoes!). As I got close they started looking over there shoulders and then started running--pushing the stroller as they went. Jordan Narrows road gets pretty steep so they would run for a bit then walk--look back over there shoulders and start running again. I kept going thinking I'd catch them but they weren't having it. I wasn't sure if they were scared or just trying to race me.
Finally I caught them about half way up the hill. As I passed I said "you two are sure good runners!" They just smiled. I ran up the hill and just before turning off the road, one of the yelled out "you too!!" Made my day. |
