I ran 6 times this week, 28.50 miles.
I didn't bike this week.
I took 61,196 steps this week according to my Garmin Venu smartwatch.
My Venu gives me steps, heart rate and floors climbed (take that last data point with a grain of salt). My Withings WS-50 Smart Body Analyzer scale gives my weight (when it feels like connecting to our Wi-Fi).
WALKING/RUNNING/BIKING: I have gotten over a nagging ache in my left hip/hamstring through lots and LOTS of stretching. So ... I do walks, runs or bike rides and then stretch afterwards. A run is better than a walk or bike in my 66-year-old mind but any exercise is good in the end.

Walk/Run/Bike electronics: I use my Garmin Venu for runs and walks (backup for the bike). I listen to my CelsusSound S800C Bone Conduction Headphones.
Trek Bike electronics: Garmin Edge 530 sensor bundle, Garmin Varia RVR315 rearview radar, Livall EVO21 smart helmet, and Redshiftsports Arclight pedals.
BTW, I am on a 1523 day steak (4 years, 2 months) of either a walk, run or bike of greater than 1 mile (as of Saturday night, 8/24). There were more than a few days when a mile was all I could walk or limp.

I got out a bit late for a run on my usual "Out by the pier and around" route. I normally don't have any trouble holding my pace on a run. Today I did. I just didn't have any gumption or breath this morning. I guess every run can't be good. My splits were 8:44, 8:34, 10:15, 10:07 and 8:40 over the last 0.55 mile.

I got out for a run on my longer "Out to Island Cottage Rd" route. I needed a bit over 4 miles to get over 100 running miles so any of my usual routes would have done it. I just wanted an out and back without as little traffic as possible. There weren't any people or bicyclists out either. My splits were 8:49, 8:33, 8:35, 8:26, 8:18 and 8:07 over the last 0.25 mile.

My right hip felt a bit off so I opted for a nice walk on my usual "Out to Beach Ave" route this morning. It was warm and really humid so a walk was a lot less sweaty than a run would have been too. My splits were 14:38, 13:54 and 14:21 over the last 0.35 mile.

I got on my usual "Out by the pier and around" route. I saw a runner coming out by pier. He turned to run on the boardwalk along the Ontario Beach Park right in front of me. He had my pace so I didn't try to pass. He pulled ahead a bit and then turned off. I continued my route. I could hear a runner behind me when I exited the Secret Sidewalk onto Beach Ave. I figured it was him. He continued on Beach Ave when I turned onto Greenleaf Rd. We didn't say a word to each other ... we were just running. It's unusual for me to see a runner in the morning and even more unusual to see someone who runs my pace. Anyway ... me splits were fast: 8:57, 8:29, 8:18, 8:19 and 7:54 over the last 0.55 mile.

I got out a bit later than usual on my slightly long "Out to Island Cottage Rd" route. It was warm and humid so I set up a nice and easy pace. I got a bit tired on the way back and took 2 walk breaks. My splits were 8:44, 8:43, 8:39, 8:36, 9:09 and 8:25 over the last 0.15 mile.
