Headed to East Setauket

  I did a repeat of Saturday’s walk. The walk was mostly quiet. I just wanted to change up the routine. The hills on the route also make it easier to reach my move goal. I did 8.12 miles in 2:35:42 for a 19:10 minute per mile pace with an average heart rate of 72 bpm with an elevation gain of 521 feet with an average cadence of 113 spm at an average power of 115w at a moderate effort of 6 at a humid 72 degrees. I’m blessed to do things at my pace right now. Thank you Lord, you always supply what I need.

Monday: Counting Down

 Mondays just seem to naturally lend themselves to being behind schedule. I started by leaving my keys and wallet in the car, forcing me to return to my car. This was my head west day. My pace was slower and I seemed to have a number of minor interruptions. I did 8.58 miles in 2:45:11 for a 19:15 minute per mile pace with an average heart rate of 80 bpm at an average cadence of 112 spm at an average power of 107w at a hard effort of 8 at 71 degrees. I’ll try to maintain as much normalcy until my knee surgery. Have a blessed day!

Saturday: Port Jefferson/East Setauket

 My plan, Lord willing, was to do the Greenway trail headed west from Port Jefferson. I was out of bed to get tea for Charlotte, and then I kind of just kept going. I had a nice walk my first time with my replacement watch. It seemed good to have my watch back after being without it on my Tuesday to Friday workouts before picking it up Friday night. Here are the stats, 8.10 miles in 2:28:01 for an 18:16 minute per mile pace at an average cadence of 116 spm at an average heart rate of 72 bpm at an average power of 120w at an easy effort of 3 at 73 degrees with an elevation gain of 521 feet. I consider myself truly blessed in many ways! Thank you Jesus! Excited for next week!

Thursday-Friday

 Thursday: I headed west again on the Rocky Point Greenway Trail. Again I am using my phone with the MapMy Run app. I was a bit slower doing 8.41miles in 2:41:09 for 19:10 minutes per mile pace at a 114 spm cadence with an elevation gain of 161 feet at a mostly cloudy more comfortable temperature. It’s a little weird working out knowing that I won’t be able to work out for an indefinite amount of time, but knowing that Lord willing I will eventually come out of this thing ahead of schedule. Through my medical appointments I also found out that I am borderline diabetic. So I need to make some dietary changes. Most likely, when I go back to my doctor, I will be put on some glp-1 medication to help regulate my blood sugar. Have a blessed day.

A Little More Comfortable

  We have been having some typical hot and humid weather here on Long Island. I don’t necessarily like the summers here, but I like that I don’t have school and the daily traffic grind. Day 2 of being without my iPhone watch, so my stats are from MapMyWalk. I did 8.22 miles in 2:34:34 for an 18:47 minute per mile pace with an average cadence of 116 spm with an elevation gain of 172 feet. It was a bit more overcast this morning. Rebekah dropped another delicious coffee off on her way home. Grateful that I don’t have to be a world beater right now. God bless! Miss Maine!
