AM - 6 miles in the rain with Finn before work.   This marks exactly 1 year - 365 days of running without a day off.   I have run at least 3 miles per day since March 1 of last year.   Pleased that I have been blessed with the good health and time, to be able to do this everyday. Certainly one benefit of the pandemic is the elimination of international travel from my schedule and not having to otherwise commute to an office.  

PM - 3 miles with Dan and the dogs after work and then 2000 meters on the indoor rowing machine.
