I walked once for 2.55 miles this week.
I ran four times for 4.22 miles this week.
I biked 5 times for 53.25 miles this week.
I took 27.105 steps this week according to my Garmin Vivoactive HR (VA-HR) smartwatch.
My VA-HR gives me steps, heart rate, hours slept and floors climbed (take those last 2 data points with a grain of salt).
My Withings WS-50 Smart Body Analyzer scale gives my weight.

Sunday, 6/28/2020

1052 steps, 49/132 resting/peak HR, 173.9 lbs, 3 floors climbed
ride: 15.07 miles, 1:13:28, 12.3 avg mph, 24.7 max mph, 131 feet elevation gain, 72F, 86%RH, 4 mph NW wind gusting to 13 mph, mostly sunny

I got out in the late morning for a "Out and about" bike. I headed to Ontario Beach Park first because I haven't been there for a while. Well .. it was still early so there weren't that many people yet. But those that were there ... weren't wearing masks or social distancing that I could see. You can just imagine me shaking my head. The rest of the ride was same old, same old.

Monday, 6/29/2020

8434 steps, 56/119 resting/peak HR, 9:06 hr sleep, 3 floors climbed
walk: 2.55 miles, 36:31, 14:19 pace, 62 feet elevation gain, 77F, 84% RH, 4 mph NE wind, sunny

 I got out for a quick before supper walk after yet another "walk-from-home" day at Ricoh.

run: 1.05 miles, 9:51, 9:22 pace, 16 feet elevation gain, 129 avg HR, 68F, 91% RH, 4 mph NE wind, partly cloudy

 I got out for something that I haven't done since 6/12 ... a run. I was a bit afraid ... but I wanted to do something that I hadn't done all month ... an "in the book" run. I made sure that I stuck to a really slow run the whole way and that I just kept it to a mile. I wanted to go farther but I kept it to a mile. My knees ached but there was no pain.

It's the end of June ... so it's stat time ... for what is worth.

I walked 11 times for 21.4 miles, 1.95 miles/walk.
I walked the Big Run 5K with Christine on 6/7 at a leisurely 25:55 pace.
I ran once this month for 1.05 miles.
I biked 13 times this month for 177.19 miles, 13.62 miles/ride.
The plus side is that I got outside for some type of exercise on 25 days out of 30 days in June.
I took 112,983 steps during the month and 1,278,045 steps so far in 2020.

Wednesday, 7/1/2020

2573 steps, 50/110 resting/peak HR, 7:33 hr sleep, 4 floors climbed
bike: 13.41 miles, 1:06:55, 12.0 avg pace, 19.2 max mph, 75 feet elevation gain, 72F, 85% RH, 4 mph W wind, mostly sunny

I got out for an early ride before my work-from-home day at Ricoh. Just your average easy ride on my usual "Out to East Manitou Rd" route.

Thursday, 7/2/2020

7898 steps, 56/143 resting/peak HR, 8:59 hr sleep, 174.0 lbs, 3 floors climbed
run: 1.05 miles, 9:12, 8:44 pace, 13 feet elevation gain, 134 avg HR, 76F, 67% RH, 9 mph W wind, mostly sunny

I got out for another mile run at a faster pace since I knew that my knees wouldn't fall apart if I ran. OK ... I guess I am going to slowly increase my distance ... and see what happens.
Our mini-garden!

I water our mini garden every morning. The petunias and marigolds are living their best lives! I may have a bit of a green thumb or it's beginners luck.
Friday, 7/3/2020

695 steps, 52/118 resting/peak HR, 8:58 pace, 173.4 lbs, 2 floors climbed
bike: 13.65 miles, 1:05:38, 12.5 mph, 18.2 max mph,, 62 feet elevation gain, 110 avg HR, 80F, 59% RH, 3 mph NNW wind gusting to 12 mph, partly cloudy

I got out in the late morning on my usual "Out to East Manitou Rd" route. It's my "go-to" route.

POLITICS ---- Well ... it's July 4th ... so Happy July 4th. 45 gave his usual patriotic speech last night at Mount Rushmore ... not. It was his usual divisive speech about the "other". How I am looking forward to voting again him and his ilk on November 3rd.

Well ... anyway ... what better way to celebrate than to run my first run-bike-run of 2020. I kept it nice and easy.

I did a mile for the run legs and a 11.12 mile leg for the bike leg. Nothing too strenuous and my knees felt good afterwards. So ... win, win, win!

I went through Ontario Beach Park on my bike leg. Social distancing was observed except for a corn hole tournament that cut off the boardwalk at one point. I couldn't go through on my bike so I backtracked and went around. I just shook my head. It was early so there was only maybe 100 people in the park. I am sure that it was much more crowded later in the day. I don't know what it is about bars and beaches ... they seem to attract people that in the age of COVID-19 is not a good thing to do.

Sunday, 6/21/2020 to Saturday 6/27/2020

I walked twice for 4.7 miles this week.
I biked 4 times for 45.89 miles this week.
I took 25,511 steps this week according to my Garmin Vivoactive HR (VA-HR) smartwatch.
My VA-HR gives me steps, heart rate, hours slept and floors climbed (take those last 2 data points with a grain of salt).

RUNNING: I will be putting a hold on my running for the time being. My left knee has issues with running. I can walk and bike so that's what I will be doing. I think there will be just virtual races and no public running races during the rest of 2020, link here.

Sunday, 6/21/2020

6096 steps, 52/99 resting/peak HR, 7:54 hr sleep, 174.8, 8 floors climbed
walk: 2.15 miles, 29:28, 13:43 pace, 20 feet elevation gain, 92 avg HR, 79F, 62% RH, calm, sunny

I got out for a "pedal to the metal" walk early in the morning. I can walk fast with my long legs. I will try running again ... but not today.

It was out to see my two oldest kids in Wayne County after a quick shower. I saw my daughter, Karen, in Palmyra first. I was really hungry and she really wanted to go to Domino's in Newark for pizza ... but I didn't want to go that far. So ... she read off take out menus from restaurants in Palmyra. We never went anywhere and I had some cookies. It turned out that I had forgotten my wallet anyway so it was probably for the best. Then I saw my oldest son, Michael, in Macedon. We talked about the usual stuff. Both kids had their AC on to the lowest setting possible ... I was chilled! My youngest son, David, was unavailable since he was helping his girlfriend prepare for a trip.

Monday, 6/22/2020

5393 steps, 57/129 resting/peak HR, 8:32 hr sleep, 174.7 lbs, 3 floors climbed
ride: 6.97 miles, 33:22, 12.5 avg mph, 20.1 max mph, 66 feet elevation gain, 115 avg HR, 80F, 85% RH, 5 mph ESE wind, overcast

I got out during work for a bit to take our primary absentee ballots to the USPS and pick up 2 Redbox DVDs from the 7-11. I went out to Island Cottage to put a few more miles in. I beat the rain so I was happy about that.


Tuesday, 6/23/2020: 2662 steps, 53/133 resting/peak HR, 9:04 hr sleep, 173.2 lbs, 0 (!) floors climbed

Wednesday, 6/24/2020

1054 steps, 52/118 resting/peak HR, 6:57 hr sleep, 174.2 lbs, 3 floors climbed,
bike: 13.54 miles, 1:12:37, 11.2 avg mph, 17.0 max mph, 95 feet elevation gain, 99 avg HR, 67F, 65% RH, 3 mph SSW wind gusting to 25 mph, partly cloudy


I got out early for a bike ride on my "Out to East Manitou Rd" route. There was a gusty crosswind so it was a tedious ride. It seemed that I fought a headwind both on the out and back.

Thursday, 6/25/2020

7331 steps, 54/108 resting/peak HR, 8:00 hr sleep, 173.5 lbs, 5 floors climbed
walk: 2.55 miles, 37:19, 14:38 pace, 72 feet elevation gain, 90 avg HR, 71F, 49% RH, 1 mph ESE wind, mostly cloudy

A "Where's supper?" plea to my darling wife, Christine, turned into a "I have time for a quick walk before supper" walk at a pretty good clip. I do what I can.

Friday, 6/26/2020

2516 steps, 52/107 resting/peak HR, 7:19 hr sleep, 175.1 lbs, 6 floors climbed
bike: 11.85 miles, 1:00:01, 11.8 avg mph, 18.8 max mph, 115 feet elevation gain, 97 avg HR, 66F, 75% RH, 8 mph W wind, mostly cloudy

I got out for a nice bike ride before I began my work-from-home day at Ricoh. It was a bit windy so I chose a loop rather than an out and back.


Well ... NY is number one in wearing masks according to "The Northeast leads the country in mask-wearing", CNN link here. It's not rocket science ... wear a mask to protect yourself and others around you when you are in a public space and can't maintain social distance or where required by law or store policy. It will be a long time before I go into and sit down at a restaurant or bar. I'm even thinking about giving myself my second COVID-19 haircut so I don't have to go into Sport Clips ... though I am wavering on it.

Saturday, 6/27/2020

459 steps, 51/137 resting/peak HR, 8:28 hr sleep, 175.6 lbs, 2 floors climbed
bike: 13.53 miles, 59:09, 13.7 avg mph, 19.1 max mph, 62 feet elevation gain, 115 avg HR, 71F, 84% RH, 7 mph SW wind, cloudy

I got out in the late morning for a pretty hard paced bike ride. My darling wife, Christine, tried to keep me home but I escaped her clutches ... after a while, lol! I was loose and my knees felt good.

Sunday, 6/14/2020 to Saturday, 6/20/2020

I walked once for 3.3 miles this week.
I biked three times for 44.43 miles this week.
I took 26,579 steps this week according to my Garmin Vivoactive HR (VA-HR) smartwatch.

1557 steps, 54/122 resting/peak HR, 8:7 hrs sleep, 175.6 lbs, 8 floors climbed
bike: 15.56 miles, 1:11:33, 13.1 avg mph, 19.7 max mph, 131 feet elevation gain, 113 avg HR, 56F, 78% RH, 8 mph NE wind gusting to 11 mph, partly cloudy

So ... Rochester had a record high of 94F on Wednesday and a record low of 41F this Monday four days later! I waited a while until it warmed up before I got out on my bike for another "Out and about on the bike". I went with shorts, long sleeve tech, Brooks jacket and Brooks beanie ... I was perfectly fine.

My darling wife, Christine, was still a bit under the weather from her infection (see last week Saturday). Her temperature was down to just a bit above normal. She did throw down the towels (in a laundry bag) so I could wash them. I think that was not such a subtle hint ... she is such a sweetheart!

Monday, 6/15/2020

5229 steps, 50/123 resting/peak HR, 7:37 hr sleep, 174.8 lbs, 2 floors climbed
bike: 13.57 miles, 1:07:04, 12.1 avg mph, 22.3 max mph, 56 feet elevation gain, 107 avg HR, 44F, 93% RH, 3 mph SW wind, partly cloudy

I got out in the morning for a bike ride. Both of my knees gave out on the way back. Ahh ... the joys of getting older ... err ... more experienced.

Tuesday, 6/16/2020: 4698 steps, 53/107 resting/pea HR, 7:45 hr sleep, 175.1 lbs, 3 floors climbed

Wednesday, 6/17/2020: 3228 steps, 55/110 resting/peak HR, 9:11 hr sleep, 174.0 lbs, 0 (!) floors climbed

walk: 3.3 miles, 50:39, 15:21 pace, 75 feet elevation gain, 83 avg HR, 65F, 69% RH, calm, mostly sunny
A sunrise selfie

I got out early for a long walk out to the Ontario Beach Park. I didn't go out on the pier but walked the boardwalk before I headed back. There weren't many people out so I had no problems being socially distant.

Friday, 6/19/2020: 2713 steps, 55/106 resting/peak HR, 8:49 hrs sleep, 172.4 lbs, 2 floors climbed

Saturday, 6/20/2020

1048 steps, 53/129 resting/peak HR, 6:21 hr sleep, 173.5 lbs, 2 floors climbedd
bike: 15.3 miles, 1:11:41 (no Garmin, RoadID data), 12.8 avg mph (calculated), 70F, 76% RH, 5 mph SW wind, sunny

I didn't remember that I hadn't started my Garmin until I was about 1/3 into my ride so I just continued onward. I hadn't had a ride since Monday because my knees bothered me after my ride on Monday. I didn't have any knee issues today. I did start a bit slow because of the SW headwind. There was a lot of walkers, runners and bicyclists out.

Monday, June 8, 2020

Sunday, 6/7/2020 to Saturday, 6/13/2020 - The Big Run 5K

I walked 5 times for 8.7 miles this week.
I biked once for 17.6 miles this week.
I took 31,257 steps this week according to my Garmin Vivoactive HR (VA-HR) smartwatch.
My VA-HR gives me steps, heart rate, hours slept and floors climbed (take those last 2 data points with a grain of salt).
My Withings WS-50 Smart Body Analyzer scale gives my weight.

RUNNING: I will be putting a hold on my running for the time being. My left knee has issues with running. I can walk and bike so that's what I will be doing. The biking is a bit of an issue since my left knee doesn't like me putting a lot of weight on it if I twist it like I want to throw my right leg over the bike seat ... so I cheat and lean the bike down so I can sort of "step" in or out of it.

Sunday, 6/7/2020

7485 steps, 51/102 resting/peak HR, 7:27 hrs sleep, 173.4 lbs, 4 floors climbed
walk: 3.1 miles, 1:20:27, 25:55 pace, 85 feet elevation gain, 70 avg HR, 65F, 42% RH, 13 mph N wind, partly cloudy

My darling but not so athletic wife, Christine, and I had signed up for The Big Run. It was a Fleet Feet virtual race for the National Running Day on June 3rd. The distance choices were 1 Mile, 5K, 10K, Half Marathon and Full Marathon. She insisted that I sign us up for the 5K and not the 1 Mile. So I did ... against my better judgment. She had wanted to get out early. Well ... that didn't happen. I was up early like usual. I finally got her out at 11 AM. I had a Redbox DVD to take back so we headed to the 7-11. She walked very slow and was winded past the first mile. She and her knees pooped out at 2.69 miles by the Greenleaf Meadows recycling bins (that we finally found after 5 years). I walked back to our townhouse (and a bit more to complete the 5K) and got the Trax to take her home. She groaned with good reason the rest of the day. She is like me ... able to bite off more than you can chew! I've done it ... first two Sehgahundas (broken rib and 2 day hospital stay), Many on the Genny (walked half) and the last Rochester marathon (hot and ran/walked the last loop). There are others ... lol! I have slowed down a bit.

Monday, 6/8/2020: 2868 steps, 55/115 resting/peak HR, 8:46 hrs sleep, 174.1 lbs, 3 floors climbed

I felt bloated and sluggish most of the day. I had the best of intentions to get out for a bike after work ... but didn't.

Tuesday, 6/9/2020

4222 steps, 50/129 resting/peak HR, 7:09 hrs sleep, 175.1 lbs, 2 floors climbed
walk: 1.05 miles, 14:49, 14:08 pace, 13 feet elevation gain, 95 avg HR, Just out before work. Weather: 65F, 66% RH,  5 mph SW wind, mostly cloudy.

I got out for a quick walk before my work-from-home day with Ricoh. Boom ... done.

Wednesday, 6/10/2020

6409 steps, 56/108 resting/peak HR, 7:39 hrs sleep, 175.2 lbs, 3 floors climbed
walk: 1.05 miles, 15:57, 15:09 pace, 20 feet elevation gain, 87 avg HR, 78F, 71% RH, calm, overcast


I got out for a slightly slower walk after I came home from doing some Ricoh printer stuff for L3Harris SAS (and a bit of grocery shopping at BJs). A warm front had gone through around 8 AM so it was warmer and more sultry than yesterday. The high for Rochester tied the record of 94F. The heat and humidity was rinsed away overnight by a cold front.

Thursday, 6/11/2020

4678 steps, 51/104 resting/peak HR, 7:45 hrs sleep, 174.9 lbs, 4 floors climbed
walk: 1.45 miles, 19:24, 13:23 pace, 20 feet elevation gain, 94 avg HR, 73F, 41% RH, 22 mph W wind gusting to 33 mph, partly sunny

I got out after my work-from-home day at Ricoh. I walked again and decided to put in a speed walk. So ... I did. 13:23 pace is about the fastest I can walk without really swinging my hips.

Friday, 6/12/2020

4166 steps, 56/129 resting/peak HR, 7:34 hr sleep, 176.1 lbs, 3 floors climbed
2.05 miles, 28:19, 13:50 pace, 66 feet elevation gain, 94 avg HR, 72F, 52% RH, 22 mph W wind gusting to 33 mph, partly cloudy

Another walk after my work-from-home day at Ricoh. I had to go in on 4 of the 5 days for a while for various reasons. I don't just sit home with my feet up on the couch ... though I do a lot of that. I decided to go out a bit farther and put in about a 1/2 mile of really slow run too. My left knee felt meh so I decided not to push it. My splits were different of course: 14:38 and 12:52.

Saturday, 6/13/2020

1429 steps, 55/112 resting/peak HR, 7:59 hr sleep, 175.1 lbs, 1 floors climbed
bike: 17.6 miles, 1:25:26, 12.4 avg mph, 17.3 max mph, 151 feet elevation gain, 103 avg HR, 54F, 61% RH, 5 mph NNE wind gusting to 20 mph, wind chill 49F, partly cloudy.

It was definitely colder and windy so I wore my pants, long sleeve tech, Brooks jacket, Brooks beanie for this ride. All of it was definitely needed. The wind plus my left knee slowed me down so I took it nice and easy. There were a lot of runners and bicyclists out.

My darling wife, Christine, had a fever that spiked to 101.7 F overnight and stayed around 100 F all day. It 's not COVID-19 thankfully. She has a swollen area down in her privates. That is probably TMI but I was concerned when she woke me during the night. I could be more explicit but I think the reader gets the general idea. I fed her tea, toast and chicken soup during the morning and afternoon. We had Little Caesar's Pizza for supper.

Sunday, 5/31/2020 to Saturday, 6/6/2020

I walked twice for 2.15 miles this week.
I ran once for 1.65 miles this week.
I biked 4 times for 57.89 miles this week.
I took 21,136 steps this week according to my Garmin Vivoactive HR (VA-HR) smartwatch.
My VA-HR gives me steps, heart rate, hours slept and floors climbed (take those last 2 data points with a grain of salt).
My Withings WS-50 Smart Body Analyzer scale gives my weight.

RUNNING: I will be putting a hold on my running for the time being. My left knee has issues with running. I can walk and bike without pain (OK ... a bit on the bike) so that's what I will be doing. The biking is a bit of an issue since my left knee doesn't like me putting a lot of weight on it if I twist it like I want to throw my right leg over the bike seat ... so I cheat and lean the bike down so I can sort of "step" in or out of it.

Sunday, 5/31/2020

3428 steps, 53/131 resting/peak HR, 8:09 hrs sleep, 174.9 lbs, 0 (!) floors climbed
bike: 15.5 miles, 1:10:05, 13.3 avg mph, 20.7 max mph, 174 feet elevation gain, 112 avg HR, 49F, 59% RH, 6 mph N wind, mostly cloudy
run: 1.65 miles, 16:37, 10:04 pace, 124 avg HR, 148 avg cadence, 56F, 39F, 14 mph N wind gusting to 23 mph, mostly sunny

I got out early at 8AM to get a slightly longer bike ride in. I looked around a bit to see the trees budding, the flowers blooming and the swans on Buck Pond.
The two closest swans on Buck Pond. There were about 20 of them.

Well ... the rioting in Rochester overnight hit close to home. The Fleet Feet Armory location was hit. The windows were busted and the store was looted. It was a long night for Boots, Ellen and others. I read some of the Facebook comments. The window guy was there by 5 AM and they had plywood up by the afternoon. So wrong. The peaceful protests in so many cities has been hijacked after dark by rioters and extreme groups.

I had to take back a Netflix Fifty Shades: Freed DVD back to the Post Office and a Redbox The Invisible Man back to 7-11. So ... I decided to see if my left run was up for a little run. Well ... it wasn't up to running from the moment I set out. I stuck into a really slow run ... but my left knee hurt constantly. I would rate the pain about 5 out of 10. But ... I kept it up all the way out to both places and all the way back. It probably be my last run for a while.

But ... Christine and I signed up for the Fleet Feet The Big Run 5K for Wednesday (We realistically had a choice of 1 mile or 5K but there was also a 10K, Half and Full option). I also signed up for the Fleet Feet Summer Around the Finger Lakes 11 Lakes. I plan on walking/biking the necessary 408.2 virtual miles over the next 4 months.

I limped a bit when I got home ... but I am used to it by now. Whatever.

Well ... it's the end of May so it's stat time. Whoppee!

I ran 10 times for 54.68 miles, 5.47 miles/run. And ... then I couldn't run without pain.
So ... I walked twice for 4.55 miles.
I ran 5 virtual races during May
 5/2 FLRC COVID-19 19K - 1:43:21, 8:46 pace
 5/8 I Run With Ahmaud - 2.29 miles, 19:46, 8:47 pace
 5/9 Fleet Feet Virtual Mile - 7:18 pace
 5/10 Bigfoot Virtual Half - 13.15 miles, 1:58:00, 8:58 pace (I think I injured my left knee during this race after 3 virtual races in 3 days). Will I go to the doctor? Probably not.
 5/22 Power Hour - 5.52 miles, 1:00:00, 10:32 pace (a run/limp pace)
I walked one virtual race
 5/17 Spring Clean 5K, 3.1 miles, 54:57, 17:04 pace
I biked 4 times for 53.44 miles, 13.36 miles/bike.
I took 157,864 steps during May and 1,165,062 steps so far in 2020.

Monday, 6/1/2020

walk: 1.05 miles, 15:22, 14:38 pace, 84 avg HR, 69F, 35% RH, 16 mph W wind gusting to 24 mph, partly cloudy

I got out for a mile walk after my work-from-home day with Ricoh. I wanted to start off my Summer Around the Finger Lakes 11 Lakes. A quick walk made me feel a bit better. I can walk at least ...

Tuesday, 6/2/2020

2018 steps, 53/122 resting/peak HR, 6:32 hrs sleep, 173.1 lbs, 5 floors climbed
bike: 13.45 miles, 1:00:17, 13.4 avg mph, 82 feet elevation gain, 13.4 avg mph, 18.1 max mph, 72F, 50% RH, 15 mph W wind gusting to 21 mph, overcast

I got out on the bike after my work-from-home day for Ricoh. It was warmer and windy so I wore shorts and a long sleeve tech. I went by the Eagans on Cranberry Rd. They had just pulled up and were getting out of their truck so I stopped and talked to them for a few minutes. I had seen them three times now on my rides but the first two times were while they were driving on Edgemere Drive. The ride went fine. My bite sized rides of 13 miles are just long enough for my bony ass .... even it is cushioned by padded bike shorts. 





One thing I did notice was how the air temperature fell by at least 10F when I got within 100 yards of Lake Ontario. The temperature change was quite striking just before I headed onto Edgemere Drive and how it warmed up when I turned onto Island Cottage.

I got out for a bike after my work-from-home day with Ricoh. I did go in to my usual 4 buildings during the morning. Sometimes the printers and plotters need to be touched and fed. I biked my usual route ... same distance, same speed as Tuesday.

Some of the fireworks at BJs

I found out where some people are getting their fireworks. BJs had 2 different sizes. I think $60 and $100 were the price points. Here is what NY says about legal fireworks, link here. Basically ... ground based fireworks or sparklers are legal. All the "shooting up" fireworks that we see all the time leading up to July 4th are illegal.

I got out for a quick walk after my work-from-home day at Ricoh. It is amazing that my long legs can walk fast but not run .. :-(. I hope that they are healing!

I was awake just before 5 AM since I had gone to bed early. I puttered around for a long while but I got out around 9 AM for a nice bike. There were a lot of people out ... walkers, runners and bikers!
