I ran twice this week, 7.71 miles.
I didn't bike indoors this week.
I biked 3 times this week, 40.6 miles.
I took 35,077 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 (when it decides to be on my WiFi).
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 64-year-old mind but any exercise is good in the end.

Walk/Run/Bike electronics: Garmin Venu (backup on the bike) and Shockz Air bone conduction headphones (discontnued on Shockz website).
Trek Bike electronics: Garmin Edge 530 sensor bundle, Garmin Varia RVR315 rearview radar, Livall EVO21 smart helmet, and Redshiftsports Arclight pedals.
I almost always 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 bought them at about a 40% discount.
BTW, I am on a 753 day streak of either a walk, run or bike of greater than 1 mile (as of Saturday night, 7/16). 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. I believe in science, vaccines, CNN and the CDC. I am fully vaccinated with 2 boosters.

It was raining in the morning, I went out for lunch when it cleared up for a bit and it rained again in the early evening. But it quit around 7 PM so I made sure that I got out for a walk on my "Out to Ling Rd" route.

I got out for a run on my usual "Out to Clematis St" route that I use during the weekdays. It was warm and humid so I set out at a really nice and easy pace. My body tried to make me stop but I know that the first mile lies ... so I kept running. I was drenched in sweat when I got done. My splits were 8:55, 8:52, 9:00 and 8:49 over the last 0.15 mile.

I got out a bit late so I headed out on my "Out to Long Pond Rd and around" route. I pushed my cadence a bit. The ride was just as nice as usual.

I was awake at 5:30 AM. I slept horribly but the sun was up so up and at them! I got out on my slightly longer "Out by the pier and around" route. I did OK at my nice and easy pace until mile 4 when I just ran out of pep and took 3 tiny walk breaks. Hey ... one foot in front of the other. My splits were 8:55, 8:35, 8:45, 9:42 and 8:42 over the last 0.56 mile.
