Turns out this loop is only 7.5 miles long, not 8. Whoops. Ah well, it's still decent. I took my watch with me, but it was my old green one. The buttons are touchy, harder to start and stop your run than the newer one I got from SUU. Unfotunately I need to get a new charger for my red/black one, it broke. So, the green one it is. Anyways, I must've not hit the button right when I started again at one of the lights because the distance was only 6.7 when I finished, I was like that's not right. I knew for a fact the shorter loop is 5.5, so the longer one had to be more than 1.2 longer. So I mapped it out online to see how far it actually is. A little disappointed that it's shorter than I thought, but it's only off by a half mile.

For the portion that my watch measured, I averaged 7:39.

AM: Wasatch loop

PM: Wasatch loop again. Didn't intend to go, just decided to. I had a lot on my mind and a run sounded like a nice way to clear it. 

Today marks one month out of the hospital. I seem to have buried a lot of my feelings and they came out in therapy yesterday, and then today were brought to the surface again. I guess that's what happens when you're forced to withdraw from school without knowledge of if you'll ever return, be hospitalized, be quarantined because of a pandemic, and say goodbye to the person you thought you were going to marry. And say hello to thousands of dollars of medical bills, woooo. What a crazy time.

In all reality I'm doing a lot better than a month ago. Sometimes I convince myself I'm all better so then when I realize I'm not, I have a lot to think about. Hence the second run.

First 2.5 were with Hattie, she was supposed to get it under 22 minutes, we did it in 21:30 (8:36 average). Then I did VA loop on my own, 7:56 average. My legs were a bit heavy

Shriner's run, 7:58 average. It's still strange to see the University of Utah campus so deserted

I got a job offer today, which I'm happy about. It'll be my first full-time position
