AM: 4 laps around Liberty Park plus a little extra before Andy's game. The Zombies defeated the Giants 7-5 to finish the season 9-2 in first place. Playoffs start this week - single elimination with the Zombies getting a first round bye.

PM: 2 mile walk with Ann. Summit's tumors are shrinking quite a bit with the prednisone the vet gave him. Not a cure but should help his quality of life for a few weeks she said.
