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.

Very tired, aborted at 2.2 miles
I started out for a 3 mile run, but I was very tired and aborted at 2.2 miles. I could have kept going to meet my goal, but that would have made me even more tired. I only had 4 hours sleep last night plus 1.5 hour nap, and I hadn't eaten anything all day. It was late afternoon when I went out. The good news for the day was that, due to the late hour of my run, there was a lot of shade. The daytime temperature, though, was in the mid 90s (F).

Well, it's just okay to abort such long runs. I salute you for joining these competitions even after your prime years. You, sir, are awesome.
