This is a good ride to squeeze in while my kids are at school.
Also had commuting to the kid's school a couple times and restaurants.
Saturday I was able to tach on a 5 mile run. This is the most miles at one time since my knee injury. Dr says without surgery I'll never be able to run a half.... not trying to overdo it, but I'd like to get a half marathon in again.

By feet: 5miles.
