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.

Salt Lake City temperature in 3 digits -- 101 (F)
I went running in the late evening and ran 1.7 miles. I waited until late evening, because today was awfully hot and I hoped late evening would be cooler. It was. The temperature during my run was in the high 80s (F). The sky was cloudy, and I finished my run/walk a few minutes before darkness set in (it was dark when I arrived back home). As to be expected, there weren't many people on the path. I carried two one-ounce bottles of water. In addition, I had a good drink before I left home, and another drink at the trail head, and I had a good drink when I finished my run. My Fuel Belt holds six bottles, and as my run/walk gets longer, I'll carry more water.
