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.

Ran for 2 miles in a stiff head-wind
I forgot to check my wakeup heart rate, but I felt pretty good. The air temperature was about 40 (F). There was a 15-20 mph south wind blowing, and I ran for a mile with that head-wind. At that point I turned around and headed back to my car, because I was getting tired from that head-wind and probably from not being fully rested since my run on Saturday. Having a tail-wind on the way back helped, but I was still tired and ran for shorter phases than I had on my way out. My running phase is normally 2 minutes and my walking phase is normally 1 minute.
