The running & walking experiences of an 86 year old man. I used to run and walk alone, but now I walk with my wife, although I sometimes go walking alone. My overall goal is to reach age 100 and still be walking for my long and medium walks. I enjoy my walks, especially those with my wife, although I miss going long distance.

Tired today but ran for a while
I ran for an hour and 25 minutes on the Jordan River Parkway. I was tired during the run and probably should have turned back sooner. The temperature was in the low 70s, and it was a nice day. I'm glad to have the next two days as rest days.
70 degrees is still a bit warm for running that long, maybe you're adjusting to the heat? How's your morning heart rate lately? Enjoy those two recovery days as they go FAST!!

ReplyDeleteHi Bruce,
ReplyDeleteI just added a post to answer your question about my HR.
I will enjoy the two days, but I don't think they will be very restful. I'll be carrying a lot of boxes from a storage unit to my son's new home.
By weeks end the temperature will be significantly higher than it has been, and the temperature will become more of a problem in the coming weeks.
I just found your podcast and your website. Great! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI am embarking on a marathon/half-marathopn journey---see my blog www.runningtodisney.blogspot.com
Thanks, Shadwell, for stopping by. Good luck with your races!
