Used to be called a cyberpunk without adult supervision. I'm old now, but still enjoy free-spirited life, and love to discover and try new things. Currently, I'm just a junkie for overseas news and gossip. A cat lover, who also digs running and cycling.
The gusting winds kept me from visiting my mother at her nursing home in the last 2days. Today is Coming-of Age Day, a national holiday. The weather was calm and beautiful. Delivered fresh fruits and snacks. Ran 14.5 km to the nursing home and back. Felt good and strong throughout. #running

A sunset run on the footpath along a neighborhood creek. After 3 & 1/2 round trips, I headed to WORKMAN, a local discount workwear/gear shop and got a daypack for riding to Parkruns in Seaside Park 12 km away. It has the special comartments for shoes and a helmet. Ran 10 km super easy. #running

Went out to the bike path along the river just before the sunset. Stopped by at a local postoffice on my way. Ran 13.4 km easy. Felt good and strong. Passed by the several runners from the local corporate Ekiden team. They were really fast and their running forms are efficient. #ruuning

Visited my mother at her nursing home in late afternoon. Exchanged the customary new year greetings with her. She was fine. I met and talked to a nursing staff at the home. He is a trail runner and runs the same local bike path often. I guess I met him before there. Ran 14.7 km in 1:44. #running

Visited SIL in downtown Tokyo and had a new year party yesterday. Ate and drank too much. Needed to burn off some of the excess calories. Went out for a run around the sunset time and ran 10 km super easy on my regular route. Finish it before learning the terrible news and felt helpless. #running

Has been drinking and eating too much since last night. It's warm, sunny day. Could be a perfect for going long. Instead, I went out to the pedestrian walk along a neighborhood creek in late afternoon. Ran 10 km super easy. Happy to be health enough to go for a run on the new year day. #running

Done the last exercise in 2025. Zwifting for 50 min/ 25 km. Reached my goals for bike for Dec. Except I missed the running distance goal in Aug., I did complete both monthly and annual goals for the both - Run = 1800 km (150X12), Bike = 600 km (500 X 12). Have a happy and safe new year! #running

Visited my mother at her nursing home in late afternoon. This is likely to be the last visit in 2025. She was good and had a cup of pudding while I was there. Took the routes along 2 rivers back home. Ran 14.5 km super easy. It was sunny and warm until the sun went down. #running

After taking care of some preparation for the new year, I went out to the footpath along a neighborhood creek and ran 10 km. It was already dark and chilly (4C). I did not run at all in the last 2 days and my legs were fresh. I felt good and strong throught. Still short of my goal by 12km. #running

The wet weather continues. I've only done Zwift in the last 2 days and wanted to get outdoor miles in. Although it was drizzling, I went out for a run to the pedestrian walk along a neighborhood creek after dark. Ran 10 km really slow as the roads were wet and slippy. #running

Rained on and off all day. Settled for a late night Zwift session downstairs. Joined Rapha Festive 500 and span super easy for 50 km. Reached my annual goal of riding 6000 km. Also, I've run 1800 km in 2025. I got slower year by year as I age, but I'm grateful for being able to run and ride. #zwift

The care manager at mother's nursing home wanted to talk to me about her health insurance renewal. I made an unscheduled visit to the home in late afternoon. Delivered fresh fruits and snacks and met my mother briefly. Ran 14.3 km in 1:46. I went at super slow pace throughout. Felt great. #running

Ran 10 km super easy on the pedestrian walk along a neighborhoood creek as usual. I just got an Apple Watch SE3 as a holiday gift. I wore both old Garmin 920XT and AW tonight. I run for fitness and the accuracy isn't the top priority. AW is more comfortable due to its size and weight. #running

The forecast for the rest of this weekend doesn't look good. Wanted to get some outdoor miles in. Went out to the footpath along a a neighborhood creek after the sunset. Ran 10 km super easy. Although the light rain came in the 2nd half, it was over 7C and the rain didn't bother me. #running

Visited my mother in her nursing home. Had an appointment for the annual meeting with her legal guardian / my lawyer. The meeting went all good. She was chatty and in good mood. Ran 14.6 km total. Although it was a bit windy, I enjoyed warm nice weather (14C). Felt good and strong. #running

A transportation run to the mother's nursing home and back in the late afternoon. Delivered fresh fruits and snacks. I arrived just before dinner and stayed less than 10 min. I will see her again in 3 days when she has a meeting with her legal guardian. Ran 14.4 km total. It was a warm day. #running

Got a text from my partner asking me to get some vegitable for the dinner in the late afternoon when I was looking for an excuse for going out for a run. Went out to the pedestrian walk along a local creek and then headed to the Co-op supermarket. Ran 11.7 km total. A nice refreshing run. #running

It finally feels like winter here (8C). Put on another layer. A sunset run on the footpath along a a neighborhood creek. Ran 10 km super easy wearing Vibram 5 Fingers Barefoot shoes. Feel great and strong. Looks like the blood donation yesterday has no ill effect on me. #running #fullmoon

Went out to the footpath along a neighborhood creek just after the sunset. Temperature was around 16C, a very warm day for this time of year. Ran 10 km super easy. Felt good and refreshed. It's been 3 months since my last blood donation. I made an appointment at Red Cross tomorrow. #running

Another beautiful day. I visited my mother at her nursing home in late afternoon. Delivered fresh fruits and snacks. She was good and had a cup of milk pudding while I met her. Ran 14.7 km super easy. As I did a parkrun yesterday, my quads were a little sore. The photos were from yesterday. #running

I got up early and participated in the Parkrun at Tsujido Kaihin Park. It's been over 8 months since the last Parkrun. I ran the 5K in 26:42 or 5:19/km. It was faster than my usual easy pace, but I felt comfortable. I rode 24 km to the park and back on my hybrid bike. #parkrun #running

A warmer, mild day for this time of year. Went out to the footpath along a neighborhood creek and ran 11 km +. Reached my monthly running goal of 150 km with 2 days to spare. Felt really great. I could have run couple of miles longer easily. #running

The weather was really nice today. I finished work a little early and went out for a run on the bike path along the river in late afternoon. Ran 10 miles (16.5km) super easy. Only done Zwift in the last 2 days. My legs were fully rested. Felt great and strong throughout. #running #bikepath

Went out to the pedestrian walk along a neighborhood creek just before the sunset time. Ran 11.3 km super easy. It was a bit warmer and a great day for running. Felt good and strong. Thinking about participating in a local Parkrun tomorrow if I'm able to sleep before the midnight. #running
