AM: 10.5 miles in Millcreek Canyon. Spent some time looking for a lost dog named Honey.

Virtual Parent-Teacher conferences the next 2 nights. Even though they are virtual, the district has decided to make us sit in our classroom for 4 hours each night to do them. I'm starting to feel better so if I had the time I could return to real running.

Andy is 15 today.

Happy birthday to him!

Are you doing anything with cross country this year? Are they having meets and practice?

Happy birthday, Andy!

Sorry, Rob. Our new Township/City has been all online but I still see lots of cars at the middle school and realized teachers are in their rooms. I'm all for virtual learning in these times (and I am very fortunate in this respect), but let teachers do virtual stuff at home if they are able and comfortable. I don't have all the answers and this is complex, but making teachers work from a classroom at odd hours seems terrible. Best to you, your family, and your students.
