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.

A nice but hot rest run
When I returned from my run, the *shade* temperature was 92 (F). Because of the heat, I took it easy, running paces between 11 and 11:40 minutes. As I did on Saturday, I took a swallow or two of water and of Gatorade at each walking break at the half-mile markers. I enjoyed the run but was glad I didn't go farther than 5 miles. My wakeup HR is still around 51-51, but I felt fine this morning. I was out running about an hour earlier this morning than I was on Saturday, but it was still hot.
