Walk/Run 2.2 miles in neighborhood after all day baseball with kids. Endurance is getting better but I need to stretch more. Hip feels tight. Hoping to do much more biking now that bikes are fixed-... read more

Rich, you should do a short series of what's termed "Dynamic Stretches" before and after your runs...You can find these stretches at runnersworld.com, or just search it on Google...These have helped me a lot!

Walk/Run in intervals. Felt OK. Went further than last 2 times out and actually had a little wind left. Thought my knee would hurt as I started to jog but hasn't been a problem at all.

Great to hear your running Rich. If you continue to do both and watch your diet, you'll make the fat melt like butter. You got to give it at least a good month to see any real benefits. Keep up the good work!

alright 8 mi 00:50 9.6mph pace
Took Alec for his first Mountain Bike ride. He did fantastic and rode well. I was very hot due to it being 90... It always takes a few days for me to acclimate to the heat.
Rich, you might want to stick with just some fast walking with your rides. No need to be asking too much from your knees right now. Try fast walking for 1 min with 1 min rests in between 4 times, then fast for 1:30 min with 1:30 rests 4 times, then :30 sec fast with :30 sec rests then 2 min cool down. These will help condition your knees, legs and hips, and if you combine that with your rides you will begin to notice big changes and gains in about a month! Hope this helps my friend!
