19.5/60 walking
@k80flec I'm sorry about the lockdown. Does exercise around the block count as a good reason?
@darkrider42 Congrats on the streak and I hope your knee feels better.
@kar328 I'm having the same issue with it.
@clepant That's a lot of miles.
I didn't get on the ex bike last week. Every time I went to the gym either the air bike or the regular one was taken by a fireman in full gear. I won't complain because his use of it is a lot more important than mine. He also uses the only stair climber and one of the treadmills. His workout is rigorous. I can always use the treadmill and if I could roll myself out of bed early enough in the morning before work the bike is open.
I hope everyone had a good and successful week.

... 40 miles done so far this month! Staying on track at the moment but weather is beginning to make it harder to get out! It is at times like these that you really miss the gym!
Our gym is doing a great job however keeping us motivated with challenges and daily goals to hit so kudos to them. It cannot be easy for them having to shut again! But it is all for the greater good.
40 done ... 60 to go ...0 -
@Dave: Hope your knee is feeling better. Sometimes I think I am becoming my dad. He would always say, wait till you get old. If this is the beginning of it all, I am in serious trouble.
Thanks for the encouraging words about my mileage. When I think that I averaged 300 to 359 miles a month it does not seem like much to me. You folks are brave to be in the gym. I have a hubby at high risk and that place is not for me right now. But I will be happy to take what I can get. To wake up and not feel like dumping ibuprofen in and the ability to put my socks and leggings on without pain is fantastic. I will take it. God has taught me once again to be grateful for movement even if it is not running or cycling for much. I am just glad to be alive for that matter. I hope all of you are doing well. You are in my prayers for safety and well-being.

@djmichaels I played around with it and got it to work. For now
@clepant it's definitely a risk vs benefits thing. I chose to go back to the gym because I need it for my mental health as well as physical. In the beginning it was outdoor classes only, then they opened up to limited classes that require sign up. My TRX class has 6 people, where there's normally 18. I think it depends on the gym. Mine is a state facility, part of the UNC system, so they're probably more strict than a freestanding place. They rearranged the whole gym with distancing and wipes and they are constantly cleaning. I'm happy with what they're doing. They've also been able to keep the outdoor classes going, usually Boot Camp would move indoors after Halloween.
1 mile in laps around the track. And lots of stretching.

@clepant - yes, we each have to find our own risk tolerance. I think my husband and I are pretty conservative. We don't go out except to exercise or buy groceries. But because we're in Florida, exercise means I can go for a run outside on a relatively empty trail. If I couldn't do that I would reconsider the gym. Our rec center is open here, as are most restaurants and stores, but we are choosing not to go. Stay safe, and keep your husband safe.0

@Dave - I do hope your knee is recovering
@clepant - I’m so glad you’re able to do more ... as to the age thing, I think the trick is to try to ignore it as much as possible
@kar328 - with the current lockdown all the gyms are closed here. However I’ve suspended my membership for the time being, focusing on running and on-line Pilates classes. Having said that - I’ve struggled over the last month to be motivated.
In lots of ways life continues as normal - or should I say the new normal continues. The biggest difference is that our daily 3 m walk round the block doesn’t always include a coffee stop In some districts the police are being a little zealous - two women, on a socially distanced walk, were stopped. The coffees they were carrying were deemed to be evidence of a picnic0 -

@K80FLEC - Thanks for asking. The knee has been responding well to a little rest and hitting the bike a couple times rather than the treadmill. I also upped my daily dose of glucosamine/chondroitin. All seems to be helping! And that's utterly ridiculous about the two women having a "picnic" because they were carrying coffee... :eyeroll:

@K80FLEC - I'm glad common sense (as well as justice) prevailed.
Happy Friday, everyone! See you on Monday!

@k80flec: Had to laugh at the two women walking and drinking coffee. Your police force must be really lacking on things to do or they are on hallucinogens . I have a friend in England and she said last spring that got yelled at for sitting under a tree with her dog after taking a break on their walk and was told to move on and no picnicking. Meanwhile she said people were playing all around her in the park. Picnicking must be a common complaint.
