AM Longish Run: Out and back into town via TerrLAke, and back Carr Hill, with no train.  nice morning, and prepping for family vacation to Great Wolf Lodge for a coulpe of days.  15miles - 1:59

PM - We made the drive to the aquarium in Newport first.  Kind of dissappointing for the price.  Coolest part was crossing the ped bridge over the KY/OH State Line, and eating a decent meal at the Levee shopping area.  Drove on to the hotel.  What a cool place - Great Wolf Lodge is all about the kids.  Indoor water park is really cool!

"Out with the bad" run in the morning.  Lots of food and bad "in" going out.  started on hotel TM (sauna) and quickly switched to outdoors.  found a near by track open to the public at a high school.  All within view of King's Island amusement park.  walked a bit more on the TM to waste time while kids sleeping.

7.2 total - about 80-90 minutes

Lots of walking, up hills pushing a stroller at the Cinci Zoo.  actually turned on the watch for a couple of active stints and logged about 3 miles solid walking.

AM - time to leave Gret Wolf and go back home.  Woke up and out with the bad run number 2.  went over to track and did some slow laps, and some harder stadium stair climbing.  4.3 mi. - 43 min.

PM - return home about 10a. Settle in, check some work stuff, and out the door.  Drove over to Grand view for some trail work.  made it around the gnarly, roots, and horribly marked 6 miles of trail in Grandview Woods in 1:15.  Had all I could take, crushed a Huma Gel (first one of those in a while), and made the trip back around the lake to the car on the road in almost half the time.  11.6 total - 2:01:08
