Beautiful run around Sugar House at about 7:30 pace. Got my entry for the Gary Bjorklund Half in Duluth in June. So I have something to point to. I'm going to make one last stab at a sub 1:15.

I started out with an easy run in the gully. Then I chose a wicked steep hill and powered up it six times. Took about a minute each times and each rep left me bent over and gasping for breath.

AM: Easy 4.25 miles. I'm shifting towards a slightly different approach to my training.

PM: Workout on the Alta High track.

1.5 mile warm-up.

5 miles in 29:51

I'm pretty happy with this.

Easy four. Hosted Dr. Bruce Schulman from Boston University the past two days for the 4th Annual Alta High APUSH Colloquium. Fancy title, I know. This year we covered the Progressive Era, World War I, and the 1920s.

So, busy and not a whole lot of time to run.

Here's a great history/sports trivia question. I'm proud to say that my colleague, Rique Ochoa, and I got it right with no internet assistace - just by harnessing our brain power.

Only four American colleges have produced both a President of the United States and a Super Bowl winning quarterback. Name them and the presidents/quarterbacks.
