No run today. Took a walk with Megan and Chas at Wildewood. We walked for almost 2 hours. Saw four fat and friendly deer and 4 Bambies.

Treadmill - 5 miles in 38 minutes. 20 minutes of rowing. ~20 minutes of weight machines.

Chas invited us to the Y. I wasn't into the mill today, so I mixed it up. We went to Tony Packo's and I promptly negated my exercise with two Hungarian pups and a side of Mac and cheese. I need to get out and explore some new areas this week. Pretty much wore out the UT Trail.

Ottawa Park with Megan - 4.3 miles, averaged 9:01

20 degrees and windy. Was surprised Megan wanted to come. I enjoyed our run. We saw a deer and I walked up to it and was 2 feet from petting it. 

8th on the mileage board this year up from 12 or 15 last year. I know folks have been injured and some don't always post. I feel pretty good about my placing. 

Happy New Year and be safe!

Basically took up space. Drove 8 hours back to Philadelphia from Toledo. Megan and I had a rough day. Just trying to figure everything out for the present and the future.

35 and pouring rain. Good run though. Feel like I got my head on straight. I got pretty dirty though.
