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.

Did a 5-mile run
My wakeup heart rate this morning was 56. Still high, but I felt pretty good and ran my normal Monday distance of 5-miles. Ordinarily that distance would be a rest run, but since this is a recovery week from not much running during the past six weeks, this run was actually a heavy run. I felt fine during the run, but my legs were stiff later on in the day. During the evening I attended a family reunion and walked about a mile with my grand kids. That helped to stretch out my legs.
