AM - 5.25 miles with Dan and Finn on the horsetrail roads at sunrise.  Really nice morning - very stiff and sore but Dan pushed the pace a bit and I reluctantly went along.

AM - just one mile on the treadmill this morning - provisionally to keep my daily run-streak alive.  I got the second booster of the Covid vaccine yesterday and the first of two doses of the Shingles vaccine.   Really hit me pretty hard overnight.

AM - 4 miles with Dan and the dogs on the new trail behind my house.   It is really nice to have this and to let the dogs run free early in the morning with no one else out.   Finn was a filthy mess and had burrs all over his fur - so a lengthy bath and clean up was needed; but he had so much fun and probably ran at least a mile or more than we did.

AM - 6.25 miles with Greg and the dogs from downtown.  He just got back from a business trip to Chile.  Sounded very cool.
