The city in their infinite wisdom decided to repave our street today so it was closed from 7am to 7pm.  I couldn't drive to school so I walked with a little bit of running.  I also walked/ran home.  All together it was about 1.5 miles with my backpack and lunch box.  I much prefer running without any extra weight.

A nice run.  I did the extended parking lot/stake center loop.  There were a lot of people out tailgating before the big game.  Big surprise that Wyoming lost.  Total time was 35:01 (7:46/mile).
