AM: Walked to the gym with Andy. He lugged a 30 pound pack. Then I supervised a circuit workout for Andy of pull-ups, push-ups, crunches, and squats plus one mile on the treadmill. Walked home.

PM: 30 miles on the bike. Averaged 16.2 mph. Sunny and cool.

Ann made white chicken chili, one of my favorites. So I'm enjoying that now with a pint of Guinness. Decided to go to Dunedin for Thanksgiving so I might just go and register for THE Turkey Trot.

Also, let's not forget that Conner MF Mantz, formerly of this blog, broke the American record for the marathon today!

A good day.
