Ran to 2300 East, down to the river bottoms, across the tree street to PowerHouse road, followed the road past the golf course clubhouse and the Chevron on Hwy 6 before turning onto Canyon Road.  Followed Canyon to 1400 East, turned to 1700 East near Canyon Elementary before coming home.

Next time I run 8 miles I think I'll branch west onto the running trail that crosses the tree street (Doing an out and back on that trail will give me about a mile) so that I don't have to wander at the end of the run to hit the desired distance.  I also need to figure something out regarding water - I was getting thirsty by the end.

Finished in 1:16:14 (9:21 avg).  Splits were 10:00, 9:07, 9:40, 9:35, 9:37, 8:56, 9:05, 8:56.
