Rained on and off since late afternoon. Stayed home and settled for a late night #Zwift session. Span super easy for 87 min. Followed 2 similar paced riders. Looks like my current sweet spot for Zwifting is just under 120W or 1.7w/kg. I pedal around 3.2w/kg until 5 years ago. Aging is brutal.

Went out for a run to the pedestrian walk along a neighborhood creek after dark. Although the days are getting shorter, the cooler weather makes my runs easier. Today was under 20C. Ran 10 km easy. Felt great throughout. I could have gone a couple of miles farther if I had time. #running #cat

Went out to the pedestrian walk along a neighborhood creek at the sunset. A typhoon is moving to the north off the coast of our main island. We expect some strong wind and rain tomorrow. Ran 10 km just nice and easy. Felt great going out for a run after the 2 consecutive days of #Zwift. #running

Ran to the mother's nursing home. Delivered fresh fruits and snacks and saw my mother in her room. The weather was perfect for running. I ran to the north on my return trip and made it the 1st 10-mile run since early June. Bought a 5 kg rice bag on my way back and carried it. #running

The 1st run in Oct. As climate becomes #runner friendly, Oct. is a big month for us. Went out to the pedestrian walk along a neighborhood creek just before the sunset. Ran 10 km super easy. Felt good and strong all the way. I dropped the National Census sheet in mail box on my way, #running

Done an hour #Zwift session. Finished September achieving my running and riding distance goals, 150 km and 500 km repectively. It's almost midnight, now. I can have a couple of beer, play guitar and relax. Competing in anything is not my thing, but I've been a goal-oriented since I was a kid.

The end of month adjustments! Needed 4.3 km to achieve my monthly running goal. Went out to the footpath along a creek and ran 5 miles /8.3 km. It's a comfotable climate for #running. Felt really good. I plan to do a #Zwift session later tonight. I still need 33 km to meet my cycling goal.

Running in the rain. The local forecast said that rainshower was expected in half an hour. I went out to the footpath along a neighborhood creek anyway. The heavy downpour came in the 3rd lap. Although the rain didn't bother me, I cut it short at 5 miles. The cooler weather was nice. #running
