We got up to the Grand Canyon and walked/hiked on the path around the south rim. It was 2.58 miles in 1:19:27 with a lot of time for taking pictures and enjoying the view.

We hiked Camelback Mountain in Phoenix, a bit after sunrise, before the 100° temps hit. Went 2.19 miles in 2:10:02 with 1,515 feet of elevation gain and then descent.

Mowed the lawn today, which is over 2.5 miles of walking.
