10 mile walk and 1 hour climb. I hadn't planned on climbing, hence the short session. (I was in a pub, but I don't drink so I got bored.) It was good, I got the stuff I fell off on Monday.

Stationary bike again, fitting it in very soon after my usual big breakfast, as usual without too much negative impact digestively. I was rushing to get to a doctor's appointment, and apparently was psychologically influenced to go faster than usual, even though 60' + 3' CD takes just as much time at a faster speed. 😆
104W average, devices claim 16.52 miles at 15.6 mph, 85% zone 3, remainder below.
Curious where my BP would be so soon after a bike ride. 126/64, apparently. Technically elevated. 🤷♀️
@drmwc I found your caving catch-up post very amusing: "I led some beginners, and didn't even get lost.", "As a doctor, I told them all they were fine and the best way of fixing aches was to cave more. They didn't believe me." I think you'd be quite entertaining to converse with at the pub, even though - or partly because? - you don't drink. 😉😆

@drmwc I'm claustrophobic, thought I had it more or less under control, fully knew I could never do what you do caving, but at least admired the pictures.
Then last week we got a new wire for use with our Sleep Number air bed, which had to be installed from below. My wife couldn't fit, so I got chosen to wiggle under the bed and hook the wire in place. Barely two inches between my nose and the bottom of the bed, my claustrophobia roared in full force. No panic, got the job done, but I was sweating, breathing hard and literally shaking when I got out from under the bed. (Yep, very macho, I know.)
Now even the pictures you post cause me to cringe. Please DO NOT STOP posting them on my account, that's not my point; my point is I am even more in awe of what you do.

Yesterday: 40 min. run outside, about a 5 mph pace with one 5 min. walk after 25 min. jogging. It was humid and not very fun. I thought I was going to have to stop after 30 min, then 32, then 35, but pushed through, finished up with another 6-8 min walking. Then I stretched for thirty (30) minutes at the gym and still had sore legs later.
Today: an active rest day, so 10 min. rowing machine (at resistance level 4 not 8 this time!), 10 min. strength training. Also a short walk with the dog (basically that's every day).

Rest day yesterday, so 1 km swim. Fairly minimal walking; I may have been below 10k steps for a change.

@nossmf I have a new technique I use on squeezes; I've been trying it a couple of years. I breathe out, close my eyes, and try to get through the restriction with my eyes shut. It seems to work well - it avoids forcing my way through and gets a smoother movement pattern.

Today - 31 minutes of a walking video; 19 minutes stretching.

It was stunning weather, so I did a medium length walk: my house to Dorking, with the train back.
6 hours, 18 miles and around 750 metres ascent. (I made the route up in the fly: My house to Epsom Downs racecourse; then to Walton on the Hill; cross the M25 near Kingswood; turn right onto the North Downs Way; leave it to go North - this adds .more hills - go cross country to Box Hill village at the top of the hill, go down the the hill along a magnificent ridge walk, go up the hill, go down the hill along the steps, then home for tea and medals.)4 -
Today is " Rest Day" Monday.

Traveling over the weekend to watch the university women's rowing team compete in Indiana, so no formal workouts . . . plus more than average amounts of indulgent food en route.
Back to stationary bike today, usual 60' + 3' CD, didn't get started until after 10:30PM, so kept it moderate, 86% zone 2, 10% zone 3, remainder below. Average 93W, supposedly 15.85 miles at 15 mph.
