I’m nearly 51, i’ve been #running nearly 20 years and I’m just not interested in fast running. I have no need to prove anything, no desire to push myself to my limits, i have not one competitive bone in my body … and all these benefits of moderate moderation means a) no #run is ever a disappointment, b) I never get injured (apart from once grazing my palms slipping on gravel), and c) i stay forever youthful 😉😅

Figurative and literal treadmill.

7.6 miles 60 minutes with a 5 minute walk warm-up:

5 minute ramp up from 6.9 (nice) to 7.5 for a while.

5x intervals of 2 mins at 8.5, 2 min recovery at 7.5.

Cool down at 7.2 for a couple mins, finish with 10 mins at 7.5.

Way more fidgety that just feeling it out running outside lol.

There are countless studies on how many steps we should take each day to improve health and live longer, so I'll get right to it:

Walking at least 3,967 steps per day is a minimum threshold to reduce the risk of death from any cause, according to a large review of research.

That's not the final word—um, number—on the subject, but it's a good starting point for an article on how just a little ambling around can really boost mood and #health.

1/ #Storm at the #beach! Went to the #ocean on #CapeCod, MA yesterday to first relax, then go open ocean #swimming for fun and #exercise. Watched this ominous storm move by us for a couple of hours. Before the #swim, the wind began shifting dramatically (bringing the rain clouds toward us). A driving rain began partway into my swim and I finished in the rain— no problem, already wet! #coastal #nature #landscape #photography #LandscapePhotography #NaturePhotography #weather #SeaScape

Coyote Creek Trail, a nice 18 mile paved bike path in the southern portion of the San Jose CA area and just a bit north of Morgan Hill. We rode the trail out and back yesterday for an easy and mostly flat 36 miles. It's a pretty trail along the creek and worth exploring.

Pull day at the gym!

Good workout. I'm doing really well with my resistance training at the moment.

Followed up with a 4.8km walk at home on the farm. I've been listening to Iggy Pop all afternoon, and I'm in a good mood.

#Gym #Walking #Exercise #Fitness #Health #Life

Decided to start taking my #health back by force. This morning I did 50 push ups, 5 pull ups, 30 mins of #yoga, and a #30 min walk while reading #StarWars Lost Tribe of the #Sith.

For context working out usually makes me feel miserable and ruins my digestion for the next day or 2. Doing okay so far. I think the yoga helps. Starting a #fast now.

It's nice to be #reading again, even If my focus is all over the place.

A friend recommended this book and the associated website Feisty Menopause https://www.feistymenopause.com/ a few months ago and I'm changing a lot of my eating and exercise habits because of what I'm learning about diet and exercise in menopause. I'm starting to eat a lot more protein and also starting to lift weights to help with retaining muscle strength. Did a long bike ride today and feel stronger. It's crazy to me doctors don't seem to know anything about this. #Menopause #Exercise #AgingWell

Really liking Gentler Streak. I never really internalized how to calibrate training intensity. This feedback empowers me to make #fitness choices with higher quality and confidence.

Alzheimer's disease is associated with patients having plaque destroying parts of their brains. New research indicates that the hormone irisin reduces the corresponding deposits. Irisin is produced by the body when doing physical exercise. The new findings may result in a therapy against Alzheimer's disease.

There are three temperature scenarios in which I always choose NOT to run fast:
Hot, cold and anywhere in between.

Today’s snailing #run is brought to you courtesy of the words HOT, SLOW and LIGHT EMERALD MOTH … mothing being my other hobby … and had nine of these delicate little green flappers visit overnight.

Stationary bike for 5 mins while I graciously waited for the treadmill. Did 5 minutes of a warmup ramping up from 6.5//10km/h to 7.5//12km/h. Then did an hour of 5:00 kms. Gotta do some mental math to pass the time.

Pushing yourself to do the days you don’t want to exercise is more valuable than pushing yourself on days that you feel great. #running #exercise

Push day at the gym!

Good workout, exceeded expectations after resting the last couple of days.

Followed up with a 3.6 km walk at home on the farm to get my steps in.

I am sort of grateful that I work on the 11th floor, so that I can get some exercise every restroom break as I am sitting at my desk all day😉

It’s been 8 days since last time I fly fished – rain is forecast towards the weekend. I might do fly tying instead…but additional sitting is not helping me. I can buy flies to save time, but I can’t buy fishing activity to save time… hopefully, I get to fish this weekend😉
