I packed a lot into my day. Work was busy and I had my workout at 4:15pm, then the Son's of Norway Executive meeting from 6pm to 7:30pm and the General meeting from 7:30 to 8:30pm.
For my workout we went outside for a run and my trainer set a faster than normal pace for me. I'm a 45 year old, out of shape, 6'4", 210+ asthmatic, what the heck am I doing running. We ran for a little over 25 minutes and I figure we covered about 3 miles. My endurance is lacking, but I my lungs are holding up and actually so did my legs. With continued work, I think I can actually get this running thing down. I finished out my hour doing a number of painful exercises, including pull ups and a ton of ab work.
Following the workout I had time to run to the store and pick up a party tray and a pie from Safeway to take to the Son's of Norway meeting. I was starving so when I got to the lodge, a little early, I opened up the meat and cheese tray and had myself a little snack. I had no intention to eat any of the pie, but it looked good and I figured people would enjoy it. The meetings were entertaining and before I knew it, it was time for me to leave. It was now 8:30pm and I needed to be back in Redmond to pick my parents up at the airport at 9:30pm.
I got back home at 9pm and I had not been home all day. I went and checked on the chickens and they had laid 5 eggs. I replenished their water and topped off their feeder. Tonight is trash night so I needed to take the trash can to the end of the driveway. I had enough to time to feed the cats and toss a load of laundry in the washer and then it was time to head to the airport.
With my folks picked up and safely back home I finally got home at 10:20pm. It was a long day.
