I think a mile and a half is great and don’t dwell on what you used to do. Those are hot temps to be walking in. I never swam 1 mile much less 5 miles and have only been this active since I retired 8 years ago. Like everyone I have up and down days. What I like about my new Galaxy watch active is the reminder to get up and move or stretch at a predetermined time intervals that you can select. It’s currently set for 2 hours…originally preset at every 50 minutes which was so annoying. But I do listen…it’s like a personal trainer and a little animated person appears saying “That’s Great” when you’re done.

I have only had “normal” food at the few restaurants I have been to since my birthday dinner but I will let you know after Fathers Day Brunch. Don’t know where we are going yet but I have a yen for Escargot. I do pick up a 1/4 lb of chopped seasoned ahi tuna at Sprouts when they have it. Did I ever tell you of the time I had mashed sheep’s brains? Thought it was mashed potatoes….tasty. People I was with told me to order this strange sounding dish without letting me know what it was….so I did.

Not a bad walk this morning and I managed to do the 2.5….there are days I only do 2 because of the humidity. Met up with some runners and walkers part way so it made the walk go by faster but I was starting to drip swift when I came through the gate.

Keep moving throughout the day even if it is only a stroll into the dungeon and back to the chair.

NO, and I appreciated that.
I had a friend like that once but that friendship is no longer. The group I was with got quite a laugh out of his shenanigans.
I can’t understand when you have escargot, don’t you think about garden snails or eat those too.
I’m sure I could find a very interesting Vino for your meal.
Regardless of what I think about your food choices your definitely getting a myriad of nutrients.
I would much rather walk in 110° weather than walk in the humidity.
Take care and don't get food poisoning,
