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.

Great aerobic exercise today
We had 6 inches of snow early this morning, and instead of running I shoveled snow for three hours. While I was clearing my driveway, a neighbor came over to help. Then another neighbor and his wife came over to help, too. After finishing my driveway, we did several other driveways for neighbors who were in bad health, old, or just at work. I was tired when I finished, but I had a good workout. When we first started, the snow was light and fluffy, but as the day warmed up, the snow became heavier and harder to move.
