I walked on 5 different days, although the Saturday walk was reduced to about 1/3 of my planned distance. I waited until it was almost dark to go walking so as to avoid the high heat of the day. I would have liked to do more walking on Saturday, but my feet were tired. I was on my feet a lot during the day, working on my sprinkling system. I was mostly changing the screens in a lot of "heads" spread over 16 zones. I cleaned earlier in the week the big filter that cleans the water taken from the canal. The time (minutes) reported above includes some of the time spent on my sprinkling system, but not all of the time.

I only ran 4 days this week due to having my daughter and 3 grandkids visiting. The temperature this week, though, was a bit cooler, and I went out early in the morning or late at night when the temperature was lower. On Monday evening, the kids were home from BYU Education week earlier that day, and after supper they all went walking around the block with me.

This week was a good week for walking! I was out earlier in the morning, or later at night, to avoid the heat of the day. Also, I included about half of the time for mowing all of my lawns, because I do a lot of walking behind the mower.

Daylight hours are still hot, but earlier in the morning or later in the evening the temperature is nice. Except for Saturday, I was up earlier and went walking around 9 am. On Saturday, I waited until evening to go out, and I was out around 8 pm. On Wednesday and Saturday, Judy and I went around the block several times instead of going to the Jordan River Parkway. The temperature while we were out was in the mid 70s (F) to mid 80s.

I haven't done any jogging this week, all walking.

Daytime temperatures were very hot (high 90s to low 100s F), so I was up earlier to get lower temperatures. Also, I reduced the length of my walk/jogs.  Shade temperatures were a few degrees cooler, and nighttime temperatures were in the low 80s. On Saturday, we didn't go to the Jordan River Parkway but stayed home and circled the block about 2 1/2 times  to get equivalent distance. Because of the closeness to home, I didn't carry water but took big drinks while I was resting at home. I felt pretty good while on my walks/jogs and resting at home afterwards.
