One mile easy on the treadmill to warm up while I waited...
Then did the Gully Longer Run (7.25 miles) for the first time in a while with my team. It was slushy, snowy, and muddy.... much more than I thought it would be after several warm days in a row. Did manage to average close to 8 minutes/mile despite the snow. The good news is that, at the uper end of the gully, we were temporarily above the worst air polution in America.
Told my kids while we were running that I probably am not moving and will be back next year. Turns out it sucks everywhere for teachers, not just in Utah, what with the teaching profession and public schools a huge battleground between liberals and conservtives. So I'd be a political football most everywhere I went. They seemed happy or faked it well.
