| AM: 6.25 up and down Grandeur Peak. Had the trail mostly to myself.
I finished reading Ronald White's biography of President Grant and it was an excellent correction to the historical violence to Grant's reputation, both as general and president, perpetrated by Dunning School historians for over a century. Grant was a great general and a good president.

| The race was really 9.7 miles.
Course is hilly with some fairly technical/rocky sections. Splits were 7:36, 8:56, 8:10, 7:55, 7:51, 8:22, 7:53, 7:46, 7:35, 4:34. I really liked the course and was actually having such a good time that I didn't want the race to end.
Albert Wint is apparently 41 now. I think of him as in his 20s still. Anyway, Albert finished 2nd over all which bumped me up to first master and a $40.00 gift card to Salt Lake Running which was cool.

| AM: Today is a teacher work day with no scheduled meetings so it doesn't really matter when we come in to work as long as we put in our time. So I was able to go to Millcreek for my regular 9.3 miles before rolling into work at 9:30
Yesterday the Canyons District social studies techers were addressed by former Governor Gary Herbert. The subject of most of our meetings was how to handle controversial/political topics in class in order to avoid irate parents.

I'm reading To Kill a Mockingbird again for the third time in the last ten years because Andy is getting ready to read it for school. I always thought I was the only person in America who didn't read the book in high school but then I learned that it was actually quite rare for it to be on reading lists or in the curriculum at southern high schools 40 years ago. I suppose that's not surprising.
