Okay, that was a surprise. I managed the first mile in 12.39 minutes! It’s been one hell of a long time since I’ve managed a mile that fast.
Another Increment

I am not only content but happy that I managed a mile under 14 minutes. I cannot recall the last time I accomplished that feat.
I’ll let it speak for itself.
I have taken a bit of a break from exercising. However, I started back up—nothing grand; nothing extreme; just a nice, simple jog. I am content.
Because you don’t get to eat my breakfast burger.

Admit it; it looks good. It’s a fried egg with cheese and a generic sausage patty from Walmart. The bun is from Kwik Trip. I air-fried the sausage patty and browned the bun on the stove. The egg was fried in a pan using a silicone ring. If you look past the burger, you’ll see a white bowl. It’s full of Malt-o-Meal with raw honey and cinnamon.
Today’s count of dead mice brought to the backyard: three. I saw Smokey bring one out of the brush this morning. Then, early in the afternoon, I found one dead, unknown which cat was responsible. Then, just minutes ago, Loki came bounding over the fence from the brush, a dead mouse in his mouth. Thankfully, he dropped it before coming into the house.
That’s it for the day. The cats are not going out again.

I took a simple walk, nothing too strenuous. I also decided to scope out some of the Superior National Hiking trails west of Norton Park, just above the DWP Trail. It was an enjoyable walk on a beautiful day.
Yeah, I took some time off from running/biking. But, back at it today. Stats below.
