I ran my familiar coastal five-miler, feeling the cold air ease as I warm up. The sidewalks and side streets were damp with melting frost, and the ocean breeze pushed against me as I hit my stride. Afterward, I will gear up my e-bike with big panniers and a bow saw to forage for free firewood. Pedaling through quiet streets, I will scan for fallen branches and cut logs to haul back home. The day will be a steady rhythm of running, riding, and preparing for the week ahead.
