Easy run + 8 x 8-sec. hill sprints.
6:52 am, 62°F, 97% humidity, winds calm, very overcast.
We had big rain storms last night and I guess that was the cause of the high humidity this morning. At least it wasn't too hot and it was very cloudy. There was no sun at all.
I've got to be finished running by about 7:45 every day this week so that I can get ready for work and then drive my boys to the church by 9:00. They're doing this thing called Stay-At-Home EFY (EFY stands for Especially For Youth). It's the same program that they do at BYU, but they're doing here for the whole Denver area and it just happens to be at our Stake Center. I think they chose our Stake Center because there is another church building right next to it and a high school across the street and they are using all three buildings. The kids go from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm every day and then come home at night. It costs a lot less money than EFY at BYU.
I've got to get up earlier if I want to get a longer run in tomorrow, and I've got to start doing some longer runs because I'm about a month out from the Georgetown to Idaho Springs Half Marathon.
