I ran 4 times this week, 17.95 miles.
I biked 1 times this week, 13.35 miles.
I took 51389 steps this week according to my Garmin Venu smartwatch.
My Venu 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.
WALKING/RUNNING/BIKING: I had a left ankle issue them seems to be OK now so I am back to short runs. A run is better than a walk in my 64-year-old mind but any exercise is good in the end.

BTW, I am on a 669 day streak of either a walk, run or bike of greater than 1 mile (as of Saturday night, 4/23). There were more than a few days when a mile was all I could walk or limp.
COVID-19: I've had the same blurb about COVID-19 for about 2 years with some varying details. Hey ... been doing it for 2 years so I will change it up. I believe in science, vaccines, CNN, the CDC and try to wear a mask over my nose and mouth when I am in a public space like Wegmans or BJs even if it's not required.

I got out for my longest run since Freezeroo #5 on 2/5/22. I read about someone on my Facebook feed who wanted to run a 10K less than their age in minutes ... so I wanted to make sure that I could too. SPOILER ... I can by 7 minutes. It was still a bit chilly so I wore shorts, a long/short sleeve combo, light running gloves and a hat. I was slightly overdressed by the end. I chose my longer "Out by the pier and around" route and added a bit to it to get to 10K. I set up my usual nice and steady pace and let the run happen. The pier was wet in spots all the way out and no waves were crashing over it. My splits were 9:04, 9:07, 8:56, 9:12, 8:55, 8:53 an 8:24 over the last 0.2 mile.
Bike: 13.35 miles, 12.8/19.6 avg/max mph, 54/76 avg/max cadence, 52F on the lake, 44% RH, 10 mph NE wind, sunny
I got out on the bike after it warmed up a bit. It was 75F at the KROC airport versus 52F from Alexa's Big Sky Weather. I had charged up all my bike electronics last week and pumped up the bike tires yesterday. It was true about the temperature I had to dress warmer for sure. I forgot that Edgemere Drive is a lot busier in the afternoon so I had to be careful of car and people.
Oh, it got to 81F at the ROC airport on Sunday afternoon. We might have reached 61F on the Lake Ontario shore.
Meanwhile out west, Prem Kumar ran the Big Sur Marathon, his 50th marathon, in 3:40. I remember when I first met him after a trail race at the Stewart Lodge in Mendon Ponds Park about 10 years ago. I did a search of this blog for Prem and found that I first mentioned him on 11/30/2013 after the RT Turkey Run (so about 9 years). We both have run many races since then. He's a bit younger and has many races in his future. He plans to run the Pittsburgh Marathon next Sunday and then another marathon a week after that!

My joints on both legs (left arch and right hamstring) felt wonky so I opted for a slow walk on my "Out to Ling Rd" today. My splits were 18:50 and 18:11 over the last 0.5 mile.
It got to 81F again at the ROC airport today. It even warmed up to 75F up on the Lake Ontario shoreline. I dripped sweat when I toiled to remove and replace the NYS registration sticker on the 2014 Cruze windshield. It would have gone a lot quicker if I had a good scraper. Reminder .... either find my good scraper or buy a new one before September when I have to do the same to the 2019 Trax.

This was a combo walk/run. I started out with a walk since my left arch ached. I came back with a slow run when I turned around at the end of my "Out to Ling Rd" route. My splits were 14:21 and 9:17.

It may be Spring on the calendar but it was Winter that awaited me when I got out for my run this morning. So ... it was back to tights, Brooks 1/4 zip long sleeve pullover, Brooks beanie and heavy running gloves. The west wind was brutal when I turned into it ... brrrrr!!!! I set up a nice and steady as I wondered ... when or if I would warm up ... why am I doing this ... am I enjoying this .... etc. But ... I am stubborn so I kept running. I warmed up after a mile like usual. My splits were 8:55, 8:57, 8:40 and 8:13 over the last 0.15 mile.

It was clear and cold ... again. So I wore a bit more ... tights, a long sleeve tech, Brooks 1/4 zip long sleeve pullover, Brooks beanie and heavy running gloves. It was 1 more top than yesterday so I was a bit warmer on my usual "Out to Clematis St" route. I hit my usual slow and steady pace. My splits were 9:02, 8:59, 8:40 and 7:46 ... a negative split ... wow.

I got out a chilly walk this morning after chilly run on the past two days. I wore a bit more on top with a Craft long sleeve and my usual Brooks 1/4 zip long sleeve pullover. My left arch ached when I started but it loosened up a bit. There wasn't much wind and it was as clear as a bell just like yesterday. The birds seem to think it's Spring ... I still need to be convinced, a minor lol. My splits were 15:00 and 15:03 over the last 0.5 mile.
