Thieves and Mt. Hope

I received quite a shock when I walked into my classroom this morning. Long story short, it was ransacked and about $4000 worth of equipment was stolen. I didn't have my usual students today, as we are interviewing potential students for next year, so my kids will no doubt be very bummed when they return tomorrow and find out what happened. The teacher's classroom next to mine was also hit, and equipment totaling about the same value of mine was also stolen.

So, it was a rough day and a run was much needed. I ran up Mt. Hope in the town I teach in. Very steep climb, and I followed the ups and downs on top of the ridge before enjoying a long downhill at the end of the run. Graph below appears to be pretty accurate.

Ran 11.0 miles @ 8:41/mile pace.
AHR/MHR - 141/164
Paved roads.
Extremely hilly.
Mid-upper 30s, overcast with light sleet.
Long pants, fleece jacket, short sleeved shirt, refl. vest, gloves (off and on)
