The family headed west to Moab for the weekend to enjoy some camping, running, biking and paddling. As much fun as Ian and I had training, Juniper and Axel had much more fun playing in the dirt with their friends. Tasmania is approaching very quickly so it was awesome for the family to spend an amazing weekend together.
With the temperatures in the 80s in town, we headed up into the La Sal Mountains for a 20 mile run/trek. The fall colors are a little behind in Moab making for some spectacular scenery.

It is a very good thing Joy took a picture of her map before we left as my 10 year old map was not so good
My run/trek in the La Sals brought back many memories of Primal Quest 2006. Joy and I ran on many of the same trails and came through Warner Lake as we had in the race. Poor Joy listened to more stories and memories than she was prepared for.
