I had a pretty busy day today (by old retired guy standards):
✅ Ran 5k
✅ Mowed my lawn (with push mower)
✅ Went grocery shopping
✅ Washed, folded two loads of laundry

Mallory Swanson is still missing for the Chicago Stars.
The star striker will not play in Friday’s regular-season opener against the Orlando Pride.
Swanson has not participated in any preseason activities due to personal reasons. And the Stars won’t specify when — or if — Swanson will return.

Finally got outside for my first 5k run of the year. I’ve been running in the gym on a treadmill for a few months (not continuously) but being out in the sunshine and serenaded by birds - no comparison.
