Got up early and went for my first run in quite a while. I started slowly, but each succeeding mile was faster than the previous one. Down to the park and around it a couple of times to reach 5k distance. Felt fine during the run, was huffing and puffing on the climb back to the house.
Total distance = 3.20 mi
Avg pace = 8.55/mi
Elapsed moving time = 28:33
When I got home, I had a little bit of time before going over to the WWC for a swim. Swam 2000 yds in just under 40 minutes, felt good about my stroke count, which was consistently at 20. I could have put more power into the stroke, that's the next thing to work on, initially at intermediate distances like a 500. I got home and vacuumed the carpets and rugs, then tacked the entry mat in the laundry room down to the floor. I had glued and clamped a loose strut on one of the kitchen chairs the previous day, so I put it back in the kitchen. Took my bike chain off and waxed it as well, then put it back on. Laura and Joe showed up a little after 1:00, and we got acquainted over sandwiches for lunch. Hung out and talked for a while, then we all drove over to the park and went for a short hike. Weather was really nice. Back home, Ann made dinner and we talked some more. After dinner, the three of us went to Von's to get some last-minute grocery items for the big Thanksgiving cooking. Then it was a quiet evening, both of them were pretty tired out from their long traveling days.
