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.

My slump is on its way out
For the past couple of weeks, I've been in a slump. I've been tired during my runs, my wakeup HR has been high, and my distance and speed have been down. I've had to take walking breaks more often, especially during the first couple of miles. However, today I only took walking breaks at my schedule half-mile points, and my pace was back to the 10:15 - 10:45 range for the whole run. I've been getting more sleep at night, and that helps my body get the rest it needs.
