Will the Patriots be able to complete a perfect season? We’ll know in about 7 hours. I made a test order of wings last night, and they were nearly perfect. After swimming today I picked up the fix. I’m bringing them, and a six pack of homebrew (a pumpkin ale and a red holiday spiced ale) over to Becky and Dave’s tonight as a Super Bowl snack surprise.

I swam 4500 m in 88:26. The workout was one of those open-ended workouts. Swim continuously until I failed to finish two consecutive 500 m blocks under 10 minutes. I was hoping to make it to 5000 m, and could have slogged through another 500 m, but what would have been the point. Besides, I was working hard on number 8 and could only do a 10:05. 9:46, 9:29, 9:34, 9:32, 9:34, 9:45, 9:52, 10:05 (77:36 for 4k), 10:50. No problems.

Here’s a photo of the road surface upon which I run.
It’s pretty much all like this, except where the road is slippery.
