Mixing It Up

Alisha says: Dave and I have been enjoying mixing up our activities now that the race season is over. In addition to still riding a couple of times a week we have been doing some trail running. Dave will do some running with me but he insists that he only runs on trails. Lucky for us we have Sabino Canyon close by and have been having fun running the trails. I asked Dave if he would ever do a fun run with me and once again he said he would only if it was on trails. Lucky for me I found a trail run at Catalina State Park that we participated in last weekend. It was a five mile run on some challenging trails with great desert scenery. We had a great time and I finished 2nd for the women and 8th overall. I was very proud of Dave and he did awesome finishing in the top 20 and 2nd in his age group.

We have also been having lots of fun going on ATV adventures. We borrowed Dave's parents ATV and so far have explored Box Canyon, Reddington Pass to Chiva Falls, and Charleau Gap. The trails that we have done so far have had some technical terrain and have been very rocky so Dave has got to do most of the driving as I'm not very good when it gets tricky.

Other than that I gave a lesson at church last week and Christine and Parker had their baby on Sept 7th. We made a trip to Phoenix to see the new little guy, they named him Charles Thomas Leavitt.
