I was at school yesterday doing some work in my classroom and Brian Howell came to visit. Brian graduated from Alta in 2010 and was part of our 2008 state championship team in cross country.. He's finishing up his PhD at Berkely right now and in town visiting his parents. We talked for over 2 hours and are meeting for a run tomorrow morning.

AM: 9.3 miles on the Pipeline Trail with Brain Howell. It could not have been more beautiful up in the canyon this morning and it's always great to catch up with my former students/runners who are doing well in life.

Ran into Jared Campbell as well and had a good conversation with him. He's an inspiring man.

Looks like the Krongs Jake, Andrea, Tanner, and their pooch will be coming over for dinner. Abby babysat for Tanner this morning and I went over there and took the little tyke for a walk around Wheeler Farm.

Finished Peter Heller's new book, The Last Ranger. It was decent.
