PM: 8.25 miles on the treadmill. Went pretty hard.

Another one of my students died this weekend in the most common way for Utah teenagers and so today was miserable at work. Utah has a teen suicide rate that is 60% higher than the national average.

The Safe Utah crisis, chat, and tip line number is 833-372-3388.

PM: Hard treadmill run. 8.5 miles.

So, just thinking about some things. Andy and I had a Covid test this morning and we were both negative. We had a little scare yesterday when Andy had to leave school early yesterday with a 99.5 fever and not feeling well. This was after an evening wrestling match against Lehi where the Lehi wrestlers and parents refused to wear masks (typical for Utah County).

Anyway, nobody here has contracted Covid. Surprising because our household consists of...

1. A person who works in a restaurant 6 days a week. 2. An ICU nurse frequently exposed, 3. An in-person high school student who is on the wrestling team, and 3. A high school teacher confined to a windowless room with 30 teenagers all day.

Miraculous? Lucky?
