The air temperature was in the mid 30s (F).
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.

Added a bit to my medium walk and did 0.62 miles
My wife and I walked around the block. There was about an inch of snow on the ground, and a wind of about 5 mph was blowing from the north.

Did another rest walk of 0.4 miles
After the Thanksgiving parade was over, my wife and I walked to the corner and back. The air temp was in the mid 40s (F), but it felt colder than that. There wasn't much of a wind blowing, but it was starting to sprinkle. The ground was dry, but we felt a few drops of rain on our face. Later in the day I noticed the ground was wet, so we walked just in time.

Did a medium walk of 0.6 miles
During our medium walk, the air temperature was in the mid 30s (F). There was enough of a north wind blowing, that we could feel the difference between going out (back wind) and coming home (front wind).

Sucked up leaves from lawn
Today was a rest day with no walking, but I mowed my lawn and sucked up several days worth of leaves. Not a lot of leaves per day are falling, and it has been several days since I sucked up leaves. Even though today was supposed to be a rest day, I probably walked 1/4 mile while mowing my lawn.
There will be a slight frost tonight, but it has been and will continue to be warmer in the daytime.

Did a long walk of 0.72 miles
My wife and I walked around the block and a bit extra. I didn't take rest stops, and I automatically went a bit faster. We were out first thing in the morning, and the temperature was in the high 30s (F).

Did a rest walk of 0.4 miles
My wife and I walked to the corner and back. This run would have been yesterday, but my son-in-law and grandson were down from Evanston, Wyoming yesterday, and we didn't go out. Today would have normally been a no-walk day in preparation for the long walk tomorrow.
