There were 2 cold snap days, and a few mornings I needed to run the heat for an hour so the kids could defrost and get to school. And toward the end of the month, we did have a few above-average hot days when AC was desired. These were offset by us going out of town for a weekend and being able to leave the Nest set to ECO.
Alas, the temps are steadily creeping up and I have a small window to do any outdoor/garage projects before the Southern Summer begins (in Mid-May).
The Running Shoes
As soon as I got home from dropping Moose and Squirrel off at school, I changed into my running clothes and went for what passes for me running these days. It was my second run since buying the new shoes. Anyway, I managed to eke out another 1-mile run, slightly faster than the first one. More importantly, I ran longer than I walked.
Date Distance Pace Time
04-01-2026 1 mile 11:35 11:42
03-23-2026 1 mile 12:04 12:22
On the first run, it took a quantum of seconds to get the Strava App to pause, so the Time was probably at least 10 seconds faster. By the way I really hate the Strava app and website. it is hard to navigate and it is constantly trying to sell you the pay version. Since my data lives here, I'm stuck with it for a while. If the running thing takes off and gets anywhere in the neighborhood of consistency, let alone what it once way, I'll look for a better tool.

I've set the comments up to allow anonymous users -- but I'd love it if you "signed" your comments (as some of my readers have done) just so you have an identity of sorts.
