I used one of those garmin watches with heart monitor etc. forerunner

not sure if it is super accurate but for my purposes it works
I use a Garmin watch in the same way. You can also use Map My Ride or similar sports app to get the same data.

I know we have cyclists here so I will ask this question. Is there a reliable device that can measure my speed as I'm running? I see speedometers for bikes but not for runners. Bummers.

I use the “Map my run” app to pretty good results.

Just had lunch with my son at Kramer Books in Dupont Circle. The street out back is closed and we were able to sit out in the sun for a great brunch. Tables distanced and such. I can feel the warm weather winding down and fall coming. Hope these places can stay in business.

Also noticed the gourmet olive oil shop in Court House next to Burger District is gone. Seems like little shops are winking out left and right.

I think that place has been gone awhile maybe even pre pandemic. But yes small businesses are in serious trouble.

India and Pakistan are different countries. But I'm proud of you for going out with a super hot girl that one time.

Right. She was Indian (ethnically), from Pakistan (born in Pakistan). Surely, you can grasp that concept.

Look at your wife toad bro.

Download an app like Strava or MapMyRun to your phone. It will work fine. If you run enough, consider getting a heart rate monitor. I've found mine very useful in measuring my efforts, especially when I ride metrics or when I go to the mountains.
