During the latter half of Golden Week, I made the most of the good weather by cycling through the hills around my home. Over two days, May 3rd and 4th, I rode a total of about 50 kilometers.

May 3rd Ride:
- Distance: 23.1 km
- Time: 1 hour 31 minutes
- Max Speed: 37.6 km/h
- Elevation Gain: 551 m
- Calories Burned: 1125 kcal
May 4th Ride:
- Distance: 34.6 km
- Time: 2 hours 38 minutes
- Max Speed: 55.8 km/h
- Elevation Gain: 890 m
- Calories Burned: 1831 kcal
Despite my age—I’m 70 years old—I find that regular cycling helps keep my body and mind sharp. These rides offer more than just exercise; they clear my head and keep my spirit refreshed.
Morning Routine and Blood Pressure:
Each morning, I check my blood pressure. On May 5th, my reading was 118/74 with a pulse of 56 bpm—pretty good for my age. I believe this is due to consistent physical activity and proper supplements.

Daily Supplements:
Here are the supplements I take every morning:
- Sesamin: For liver and cardiovascular health
- DHA: Supports brain and eye function
- Vitamin B complex (like Alinamin): Helps combat fatigue

Final Thoughts:
Golden Week isn’t just about travel or relaxation—it’s also an opportunity to reflect on health. For me, cycling and maintaining a steady routine of health checks and supplements are the keys to enjoying life fully, even in my 70s.
