A few hours more of leaf raking and blowing.

Fitness class at the library.

Also a couple hours blowing and raking leaves that I didn't log. I bought a battery operated leaf blower and the charge lasts about an hour (more on a low setting, less on a higher one ). So I'm doing this in pieces - blow leaves until the battery needs recharging and then rake to finish whatever section of the yard I was working on. Then take a break. I did some before class and some more after I got home after the battery charged.

I thought my yard guy was going to make one more visit but apparently not so I let it get pretty bad.

A cold walk around the neighborhood. It was just over 30 when I started and it hasn't quite made it up to 40 yet although it's supposed to get to 50 some time today. Was dressed reasonably though so it was pleasant. Tried to push the pace but ran out of oomph at some point.

Fitness class at the library. She goes in 3-week cycles so new stuff today. Forgot to start my watch.

I was going to go for a walk but as soon as I got outside it started raining, but not very hard. So I decided to rake leaves instead figuring if it started pouring I could quit. So I raked for a while and it was raining off and on but not very hard. Then it started hailing so I figured that was a good time to stop. But by the time I had put the rake away that had stopped and the sun even came out a bit, so I walked to get my mail. After I got back, I raked for a bit longer and then it started pouring and I had finished raking the road edges so figured that was a good point to stop. So not really a workout but I love the track.
