| Lunch run around the neighborhood. My son biked along. He wanted to stop at 2 miles but I coaxed him to 3, then challenged him to a race of 1 mile (which he won, of course). I'm pretty happy to get him to bike 4 miles. I probably went harder than I should have after a long run, but I'll go easier tomorrow. 4 miles. New shoes.

| PM- somewhere between 8.5 to 9 miles on the normal roads. Lots of people out walking and running around the soccer fields, which warms my heart.

| Lunch- met Barry at GE trail, first time I've run with him in a long time. Good to have someone to vent with about work stress, life, economic shutdown, etc (just like everyone else, we have salary reductions and mass layoffs coming). 4.5 miles. Saw a couple deer and a few more turkey. Beautiful sunny day.

| 7.5 around home. Ran along a creek and meet a guy who told me his plans of turning our area into the biggest City in the state. He talked for 30 minutes. Nice guy.
I'm proud to live in one of 8 states that doesn't have a mandatory shelter in place requirement.

| Lunch- 70's, overcast, breezy. Ran 12.5 miles, longest in 2 years. Started 8:30 pace but maintained about 8 min pace the last 10 miles. 1:42. Legs were a bit tired by the end.

| Overdid it a bit Tuesday between my longest run in 2+ years and then some tag with the kids in the evening. Groin is twinging a bit, so I'll take a few days off. Probably try a little jog on Saturday or Monday.

| AM 4 miles in neighborhood
Lunch- went to GE with family. 3 bikes. Marci rode the whole time. Quincy and Josie took turns riding on crossbar or running with me. I was not expecting to have to run so wore pants. We did 3 miles and I ran at least 2 of them. My 5 year old is crazy- she can run almost as fast as me for miles, and talk non-stop while running. She even sang some. My 11 year old and my 5 year old are the most natural runners of my kids- if they want to, they could be very good.

| After much complaining from some of the kids, we went to GE trail with the whole family. 3 oldest kids had bikes, wife and I planned to run, and have the two youngest ride on their older siblings' bikes. However, the 5 year old ended up running most of the way at basically the same pace as me (and faster than her mom)- I'd say she did 2.5 miles or so. The 7 year old ran 1.5 miles or so. Marci and I ran 3.5. I'm very impressed a 5 year old can run 2.5 miles straight at adult pace without complaining. As always, after we went to QT for donuts or ice cream.

| Ran with Mike Smith for the first time, joining the workout group at his house with Paul and Heather. We ran 1 mile, did 4 exercises (squats, burpies, pushups, etc), then repeated 3 more times. 4 total miles.

| 4.5 miles with Zach on this bike. We were only going to do 4, but a home builder was pouring a house foundation with a concrete pumper truck so we ran over and watched for 10 minutes while I explained how it all worked (I did construction/concrete for 2 summers in high school and college).

| AM- Rained a lot last night, 2.7 inches. Stopped just before sunrise, so my run was humid, cool (low 50's), overcast. Quite nice. My left ankle has been bugging me a bit but everything else is ok, generally. Ran 7 miles in 1:03.
