I ran 3 times this week, 9.46 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.
WALKING/RUNNING: I have a swollen right knee. So ... I am doing a lot more walks than runs. A run is better than a walk in my 67-year-old mind but any exercise is good in the end.

Walk/Run electronics: I use my Garmin Venu for runs and walks. I listen to my CelsusSound S800C Bone Conduction Headphones.
BTW, I am on a 1859 day steak (since 6/24/2020 or 5 years, 1 month) of either a walk, run or bike of greater than 1 mile (as of Saturday night, 7/26). There were more than a few days when a mile was all I could walk or limp.

It was just as warm and a bit more humid than yesterday so I was a bit glad that today was a walk rather than a run day. I set up my usual brisk pace on my usual "Out to Ling Rd" route. My splits were 13:20 and 13:46 over the last 0.85 mile.

It was warm and humid so I wore my usual shortest shorts and my yellow Shoreline Half tank top. I was a bit bored with my usual "Out to the Secret Sidewalk" route so I went to my shaded "Out to Stutson St Overlook" route. I wanted to keep out of the sun even before 8 AM, lol! I stopped for a walk at the turnaround and twice for traffic. My splits were 9:25, 9:29, 9:00 and 8:42 over the last 0.15 mile.

It was a trifle cooler but just as humid this morning when I got out on my usual "Out to the Secret Sidewalk" route. Lake Ontario was very scenic ... with the sunrise reflecting on the calm water. My splits were 9:04, 9:09, 8:59 and 8:38 over the last 0.16 mile.
