1/2 mile walking the dog.

60 minutes on the stationary bike.

Couldn't resist - 10 minutes on the treadmill very easy pace and set at a 4 incline to reduce stress on the achilles.

Now back to baking cookies for my nephew's mission farewell next Sunday.

Things were pretty busy for a few days between work, working at the temple, Christmas Eve dinner at my place and Christmas, so I took a break or would have gone insane.

This afternoon I just had to run, so did 5 1/4 easy miles and felt pretty good. I think I might try to run 5-8 miles 3 days a week for the next month and cross train the rest of the time.

Broke out my Wii Fit for the first time (I bought a used one several months ago and never opened it). That was kind of fun - but it says I am 62 years old.
