    Happy weekend!
    I’m back in Arizona.
    Rose & I will celebrate our 47th wedding anniversary on Monday. She has chosen for us to celebrate that momentous occasion by driving almost to the Mexican border and hiking in Organ Pipe National Park near Ajo, Arizona.
    Today, I’ll get myself motivated to post a February UAC invitation on the MFP Challenge board. More about that later

    Happy Anniversary guys 💞🥂🍾🤗

    Exercise: Y 23K steps including 130 minutes walking.
    Calories: Y 2478/1800+750
    Tracked: Y

    So the Bossman showed up at work today bearing ...you guessed it...donuts! Not again! Anyway I wasn’t taking back to back pass days so I had to go out this afternoon and get some extra hoofing in. Got pretty deep into the exercise calories, but still had some left at the end.

    on track day -
    Tried to get out for exercise way early this morning because Buddy coming over.
    Got up to parking spot before sun peeked over the mountain.
    Guy pulled in behind me and parked.
    Heh, in the company of athletes. This guy 10 years older than me and pretty darn active yet. He is still doing Imogene (pass run). He still does Mt Taylor biathlon. Top of his age group in that sort of competition. Heh, approaching 80 that age group can't be too many guys.
    He gave me some good encouragement and challenge on commitment.

    I went up a substantial hill on some blacktop. It was early yet. I seen a couple of coyotes a ways off the road that were just waking up. One of them stretched, you know how like dogs do. Kind of reaching forward with forelegs or paws and putting head down. You know stretching like that. Those coyotes were about as big as I have ever seen coyotes. I thoght the size of a deer until I figured better. They looked at me and weren't particularly inclined to move away. I stopped and made like I was going to move in their direction and they moved off kind of casual like.

    I went up a little branch road that I haven't been up but a couple of times. So I got some PR's on it. But that is just because I haven't established an average on it yet. It is a pretty nice place in that it is blacktop but it is closed by a barricade gate so only people there as runners. Bikers don't really go there much as far as I can tell. It is a 400 foot climb over a mile so it is a shade steeper than my usual repeat hill. I did that one twice. The other one I did where I seen the coyotes was 1000 feet over 2.3 miles. The top is like 11 or 12 percent grade. I got to keep track of my knees when I do that to them.

    I ought to put a picture of something.
    (nothing to do with today's activity)
