Even though, I did not take this picture, it is an iconic view of late October in the Midwest.

This is a nostalgic image to celebrate the beauty of late fall
I hope you are enjoying the outdoors wherever you are!

Exercised?: Yes. Walked 5 Km in 37 mins (hills).
Calories?: Yes.
Tracked?: Yes.
FPV race today on the other side of town. Did not manage to walk early as it was raining, but was still light when I got back home, so went then.
Did better today than I had done previously in FPV racing. My personal fastest times in both heat and final. Finished close second in my divisions final (to a faster pilot with more flying experience and faster and more durable craft). Managed to avoid all obstacles and finish all heats and races (which was my personal goal for the day - added bonus of no repairs).
@RangerRickL. Fall (which we know of as Autumn) in your area looks beautiful.
@windowqueen2003. Glad you are seeing the benefits of exercise. They definitely ring true for me. I feel better at 49 than I did at 39. (And thank you for the beautiful photos).
@cardio_enthusiast. Hope you had fun at the birthday. I hope you enjoyed the cake. Pass days are for special days. Enjoy them.
@trixsey1. As you have seen. Sleep is so important. Your Saturday sounds exhausting to me.

I am exercising and weighing all my food and tracking / logging . New meds I feel better but I am gaining weight. My doctor actually came into the bank and told me how great I looked.
I grimaced and said really because my pants feel tight. He said to give my body some time to adjust. We shall see.I refuse to buy new clothes. 1 -
It's been a full week of babysitting. My son-in-law has gone to China for 10 days so my husband and I have cranked it up a notch to help our daughter look after her 2 young ones. Not going to be in the Winner's Circle; babysitting really throws a wrench into my healthy habits. We r resting today which feels sooo good.
Going for a 6 km walk tonight with my friend. Haven't officially exercised since Thursday(played tons with grandkids but just not the same).

Almost had to use a pass day on two different issues todayl Was super tired when I got home this morning from work. didn't feel like exercising or even taking the dog for a walk. I was so close to just scratching the idea of a walk, but thought, you need to do this and so I did. Had a nice brisk 45 min walk with my dog. The second issue was I was really craving some progresso chicken soup. One can has 1,380 sodium, I limit myself to only 2,400 per day. ended up with 2,259 sodium. I really had to play around with my logging my foods (pre logged). I was able to get my calories and keep under my sodium and keep my potassium up. It took me a bit to figure out what to eat today, but I really wanted that chicken soup. Proud of myself for doing it

Race ...
Before I can say anything I better say yes, yes, yes.
I got in a race with Trail Runner Dan.
I am a mountain biker. He is a trail runner.
Can Mountain bikers race trail runners?
Impromptu ..
We park in the same place at the same time.
We talk a little bit.
He talks about how he is going to run for .2 and walk for .2. (two blocks kind of)
He says he is going to take off with a head start and let me catch up.
That is doable. I catch up.
We kind of idling for a couple of miles. We talk about heart rate monitors. He is wearing his. Heh!
Couple of miles of run/ walk goes by.
Then we find some 13% grade. Ain't no more talking.
He is running. He is a guy that prides himself on his conditioning.
He is looking at me but I am a guy that is just like him only I am wearing a 30 pound backpack (bicycle)
Ain't no cutting slack from here on out. We are a couple of thoroughbreds.
I goes to shift down and I drop my chain. Seemingly seconds but there ain't no recovering from that malady. Danny boy just keeps on moving.
I can't reel him back in.
That scamper ran away from my chain drop. Nothing I could do about it. I kept looking to get him back but he kept getting further and further.
I gave him a satisfying day of racing. Don't know what to say about my demise.
Better than couch potatoes I guess. Old guys racing. This is weird.
I am going to tell you guys a secret about this. There was a marathon race going on in town while me an crazy Dan was going at it on the mountain.
Alright ... I am going to put a picture here in my profile and it ain't appropriate. It ain't copyrighted, I got it out of the newspaper. I put it in my profile because I can delete it before anyone gets offended.
This is a world class athlete. I am an old man. But it is weird. I still got this thoroughbred mentality of racing and winning. Oh man what if I lose! Oh man, what if I die!
This is a marathon winner. (That is my cardio trainer winning a marathon.)
