Walking/Running Thread

Hi! If you know me at all on here you might know I’m a runner. I run usually three times a week, not fast, for sure, but it’s great. I’ve had to start going earlier and earlier in the morning as it gets hotter, now I’m going at about 7am. Pretty soon I might go at 6 sometimes, running over 70° kinda kills me.

I walk on the days I don’t run, usually in the late evening in the vineyard. I carry pepper spray if I run into any coyotes, which is pretty likely around here. I saw a raccoon last time actually

I go dancing every couple weeks as well, with a group of friends. You’d be surprised how many steps you take while dancing, especially how we do it! I think I got up to 14,000 last time…

Wow that’s fantastic!!!!

I just walked the dog this morning for the first time in a while because of my ankle. It actually didn’t hurt this morning. Last night it hurt bad.

Mine seems pretty accurate as to steps, but I don't have anything to compare it to. I know it's way off on mileage though. I have a route I run that's exactly 3.1 miles, and it usually says I've gone 4 miles or more by the end.

Oh wow lol I compared mine to my watch and it’s off by like 2,000 steps
