Difficult day to run. I started out the door with the plan of doing some hill repeats over at Pah Tempe. I was one mile into my warm-up when my wife came and got me and said we needed to head to the hospital her father had just had a stroke. This is a pretty scary deal, just ask Dave Holt. Anyway, I was able to be with my father in-law most of the day and I helped give him a blessing. It was only a minor stroke, but he is still going to be in the hospital for a few days. To make things even more difficult, my mother in-laws father, just passed away on Saturday, so she is now dealing with both her husband and getting things ready for the funeral on Thursday. My wife, Sunny is doing a good job dealing with everything and said I could go out for my evening run tonight. It felt good to get out tonight, I ran up to the city building in Toquerville 4.5 miles and back home. Going out I was 34:02 and coming back I was 32:11. I hope to get in some good miles tomorrow and Wednesday and then taper a little for the Provo Half on Saturday.
