I didn't sleep very well last night. I had some kind of weird apocalyptic dream and I had a hard time getting back into a good sleep after it because it was disturbing.

I got up at 5:00 and did the shred level 2 with 5 lb. weights. The switch from level 1 to level 2 was a little bit challenging. I then drove my son to seminary and ran after that.

According to the t.v. news, the temperature was about the same as it was in the mornings last week, so I dressed the same (shorts and a t-shirt), but once I got out it felt colder to me. There was a cold wind and I felt pretty cold for the whole run.

My average pace was 10:42 and I did a hill sprint at the end of the run. I timed the hill sprint, but didn't do it based on time, if that makes sense. I just ran to the top of the hill and then hit the lap button. The hill sprint lasted 21.78 seconds and my average pace on the hill sprint was 6:31.

I've got to work today and also get laundry done and get packed for my trip to CA tomorrow. Also, my daughter has her first piano lesson this afternoon.
