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.

And still another 0.62 miles
Yesterday (Sunday) was my 5-week anniversary of my pace maker. After 6 weeks, I'm supposed to be completely healed from having the pacemaker put into my body, and I'm getting tired of going around the block for my 0.62 miles. I still feel tired after finishing the 0.62 miles, but running first thing in the morning instead of last thing in the evening may help me to feel better. As I recover from the minor surgery involved with the pacemaker, I'm feeling stronger and am about ready to return to the Jordan River Parkway and begin to increase my distance. I make relatively small increases in distance, and it will take a while to return to 2+ miles.
