What's the best exercise for longevity?

In one study they found the following associations:

Aerobic only= 24-34% lower risk
Both = 41-47% lower risk

Work from home is tough when you have to smell this cooking all day. 😩

This is why my wife makes me hire people to do the yard work.

Shoutout to Marco Altini, PhD and Alex Predhome for stellar races at Boston.

I’m sure there are more people I follow who raced today. Sorry if I missed ya but tag yourself!

This.

I weigh myself rarely if ever.

Personal reasons: I can get obsessive over it in ways that aren’t healthy.

Also: huge swings due to hydration, etc.

The mirror is good enough feedback for me. 🤣

I should not have done my run before watching the #BostonMarathon because I’m going to want to run again when it’s over. 🤣

I bought this Gu soft flask to try for fueling on runs. It holds up to 5 gels.

But it sucks.

It’s hard to get the gel out and unless there’s a lot inside, it’s hard to consume.

I’ll stick to tearing off the tops of the individual gels and eating them that way. Much easier.

Morning run.

Nothing special today. Just miles.

Again (for some reason) heart rate *not* accurate.

Padded shorts.

I don't care what anyone says: A cold beer after a run is healing.

Kite fest. 🪁

I train on my bike a lot.

But nearly all of it is inside on the trainer.

Why don’t I ride outside?

1. Safety

For me it’s not worth the risk. I have a kid. I have a wife. We live in a big city and I’m not taking the chance of getting hit.

2. Time

A 2-hour ride inside is…

Out of context small town Midwest park

A solid week of training. 🚴🏻🏃🏻

Almost 40 miles of running (three runs of 10, 7, and 21 miles)

Just under 8 hours on the bike trainer.

Lots of walking as usual.

3 weeks until project piggy. 🐷
