I ran 4 times this week, 18.36 miles.
I didn't bike indoors this week.
I biked twice this week, 24.84 miles.
I took x 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: My left arch issue is OK now so I am back to short walks, runs or bike rides. A run is better than a walk in my 65-year-old mind but any exercise is good in the end.

Walk/Run/Bike electronics: Garmin Venu (backup for the bike) and Shockz Air bone conduction headphones (discontinued on the Shockz website).
Trek Bike electronics: Garmin Edge 530 sensor bundle, Garmin Varia RVR315 rearview radar, Livall EVO21 smart helmet, and Redshiftsports Arclight pedals.
I don't buy my electronics retail. I buy my Garmin stuff used off of eBay or an online vendor when it's a generation or more old. I bought the helmet and pedals off of Kickstarter or Indiegogo so I got them at about a 40% discount. I usually buy my running shoes online or on sale at Fleet Feet.
BTW, I am on a 816 day streak of either a walk, run or bike of greater than 1 mile (as of Saturday night, 9/17). 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 2+ years with some varying details. I am fully vaccinated with 2 boosters.

I had a serious lack of motivation when I woke up. I didn't get out until just after 12 PM but I did get out. I set up a nice and easy pace. I took two small walk breaks My splits were 8:47, 8:35, 8:45, 9:25 and 8:30 over the last 0.45 mile.

I slept in until around 6:45 AM and just lazed around while I watched Queen Elizabeth II's funeral. I got out after work for a quick walk. I could a thunderstorm out over Lake Ontario so I picked up the pace. It started to rain about 10 minutes after I got home. My splits were 13:39 and 13:26 over the last 0.5 mile.

I got out in the dark for a bike on my usual "Out to East Manitou Rd" route. It was quiet and peaceful like usual. I got in 11.75 miles before the sun even came up. I almost had a mishap when I hit a branch that was overhanging the shoulder on the west side of Island Cottage. There was a couple of cars coming behind me that distracted me from seeing it. I ducked but still whacked it. I swerved a bit but stayed upright. I might go out and cut that branch back myself.

I got out in the dark on my "Out to Stutson St Overlook" route. I wore my Noxgear Tracer360 lighted vest so drivers could see me and my headlamp so I could see. The route does keep me off the road as much as possible. I got back about 15 minutes before the sun rose.

I had a random day off so I slept in until after 6 AM and didn't get out for a run until after 8 AM. I chose my usual "Out by the pier and around" route but added another loop of the Secret Sidewalk to get above 5 miles. I took a little walk when I started that second loop. My splits were 8:39, 8:21, 8:41, 9:04, 8:41 and 8:33 over the last 0.25 mile.

Fall is here! It was chilly and windy for sure this morning! I put on my Brooks pants, jacket and beanie along with a long sleeve tech. I was a bit cold until I got used to it. The wind definitely held me back when I rode into it. I saw 2 fox cross across Island Cottage up near Edgemere Drive on my way out.

It was colder than what I was used to and I had to talk myself into getting out the door. It was 43F but sunny. I even thought about putting on tights but settled on shorts, long sleeve tech, Brooks beanie and light gloves. I took off my beanie at mile 1.5 when I warmed up. I kept a steady pace and stretched the run by running out to Mann Rd. My splits were 8:58, 8:42, 8:43, 8:44, 8:46 and 8:44 over the last 0.41 mile.
