I sat in the lounger at home in the sun today, writing letters to family and looking at the Christmas lights while the kids talked for hours about what they want for Christmas. This must be what retired people feel like.

Hard, flat run. Long overdue for a run like this. Ran along the Orange County beaches from Balboa to Newport out on the Huntington Pier and back. 7:14 average pace.

Spent an entire afternoon helping the kids make gingerbread houses which destroyed my kitchen. Had just enough time for a short tempo. Just under six min pace.
