OK, I was slow, and I didn’t PR, but I didn’t quit either. But I did run a parkrun 5k
What was amazing was afterwards I weighed in. See below.
I do want to touch on some things
My nearstore server has been having problems with its disk.
It is on a 2.5″ disk and I have come to a conclusion they do not do support zfs well.

Did our annual pilgrimage to Mount Vernon and got our shrimp.
Although we did get shrimp, I also got an awesome crab sandwich.
We left a little later, about 9:30AM but still got there with ample time. Today was a Friday so not that many people.
We got home around 4:30PM and after resting a bit son and I hit the gym. I felt amazing. Really surprised myself.
Weight is lowest since putting into regular database April 2023.

Went to memorial stadium and saw a bunch of former runners and cheered on current runners.
Weather was great, took time to walk Cedar River.
Work was busy though, I think I have a 3 day weekend, but that is not true, going to have to work and catch up on things.

Had a dentist visit today for a cleaning, funny story, I just got out of a stressful conference call meeting before my dental appointment. It was pretty stressful and I was happy to be in the chair.
After work I had to quickly hit the gym because I wanted to have a surprise visit to my son at PLU.
He needed it, as much as I need a break.
Did have a decent treadmill run, got my heartrate up and I did walk in the twilight of a track at PLU.

Wish my weight would come down quicker. But I have had a great workout.
Also I recognize the need to increase my muscle too, can’t just lose weight.
I felt like I was doing good on the treadmill, but was struggling a bit, my son lowered the speed cause I was struggling.

Hoping they do this again when I am physically ready
If I can sub 15 for the mile I will do it next time.
Also worked on a new DHCP Server system called Kea. Interesting set of services.

Starting to come back, my weight is starting go back down again but I need to get some muscle back.
Pushed it pretty hard, my son was there coaching me up. Did interval training and did not reduce speed. It was a good push.
Then we hit the weights, I asked him to put together something for home. Not a record but good.

Getting old and I feel like I cannot keep up with the things happening at work.
Need to build a kea server, research vtpm, another patch needs to be applied.
So tired. So much to do, I think I will be working over the weekend.
Did watch track meet today then went for a walk.
