Unfortunately I didn't get many runs in last week due to our road trip to two National Parks (Grand Tetons and Yellowstone) but I did get a lot of hiking in. Our road trip isn't finished as we are now in Utah visiting Hubby's mom. It's been lots of fun but I'm looking forward to getting back home and sleeping in my own bed.
Here's a recap of what I did last week:
Monday 7/17 - Backpacking to Surprise Lake in Grand Teton National Park. Hike was 5 miles to campsite with 2895ft. of elevation gain. The kids did awesome!
Tuesday 7/18 - 5 mile hike back to the trailhead.
Wednesday 7/19 - Short 2 mile run before heading to Yellowstone National Park plus short 1.6 mile hike to Grand Prismatic Spring Overlook.
Thursday 7/20 - 3 mile hike at Norris Geyser Basin.
Friday 7/21 - Hike up Mt. Washburn plus off a little spur for ~8 miles total.
Saturday 7/22 - Rest
Sunday 7/23 - 6.5 miles in Jackson Hole, WY.
As to the weekend, Saturday was the day we left Yellowstone National park and stayed in Jackson Hole, Wyoming for the night. On the way to Jackson Hole, we couldn't resist stopping at some view points of the Tetons again.
We got into Jackson Hole and we were hoping we could check into our hotel early but unfortunately it wasn't ready. However, we were staying at the Snow King Resort and they had mini golf there and we decided to play 18 holes. It was fun! I even got a hole in one. My 6 year old got one as well. It was their first time and I think they had a good experience for their first time. :)
We checked out the town of Jackson Hole and I love how they have this archway of antlers. It is a very cute outdoorsy town.
We also came across this cool artwork where it makes my 8 year old have wings. #jhalleyart
Here's another where both boys have different ears. :)
On Sunday, we arrived at my mother-in-law's place and the boys enjoyed playing with their dog Hank.
That pretty much sums up my week! Linking this post up with HoHo Runs and MissSippiPiddlin for their Weekly Wrap. This week's new Guest Host for the Weekly Wrap to give Holly and Tricia a break is Darlene from My First 5K and More. Please be sure and check out her blog!
Have a great week!
