I ran x times this week, x miles.
I took x 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. All weather conditions are from the Greater Rochester International Airport (KROC) which is 13.3 miles away.
WALKING/RUNNING: I have a swollen right knee that I ignore. My PCP said that since there is no pain to just watch it. He thinks that it may be that the leg muscle is outside of the ligaments that should surround it (which makes it puffy looking). I also can't run more than 50 strides (4 steps/stride) before I have to stop to catch my breath. I either have developed asthma or allergies (something for my PCP to think out when I have my physical on October 22nd). I also have a cough due to phlegm running down my throat. So ... I might not sign up for any more races.

Walk/Run electronics: I use my Garmin Venu for runs and walks. I listen to my TechNet bone conduction headphones, link here.

BTW, I am on a 2251-day steak (since 6/24/2020 or 6 years, 2 months) of either a walk, run or bike of greater than 1 mile (as of Saturday night, 8/22). There were more than a few days when a mile was all I could walk or limp.

I thought about going for a run but I didn't to do a run/walk (ugh!) I got out for a brisk walk on my "Out to Ling Rd" route. I added a bit of meandering around Greenleaf Meadow to get over 2.0 miles. My splits were 12:57, 12:50 and 12:25 over the last 0.06 mile.
