-3 Celsius at Henderson park

  Allyson and I walk at Henderson Park Here we are in the corridor between the Japanese Gardens and Henderson golf course. -3 Celsius and it felt pretty nice outside. I have to say. The dog was having an awesome time so I really enjoy Allyson company. We think we’re really highly of Allyson. We do two laps around Henderson, which I didn’t really have to talk much into it. Allyson is a pleasure to just say yeah we’ll go to a second lap, and Dixie thought the world of her. I still gotta do a run tonight. 40 minute run But the lower aerobic exercise is definitely needed. That’s what my watch is saying so I really appreciate the 5.4 km walk we did. My watch has been asking me to balance out my lower aerobic and higher aerobic exercises so an hour and 12 minute walk is just what I needed today Dixie still rank 29 for the leaderboard for December, Not much to complain about for that she’s doing awesome. She’s above her score for her breed. Dixie is a sleep scorer, Dixie’s sleep score is ...

Plus five Celsius Sunridge park

  Dixie and I run around Sunridge Park when it’s +5 Celsius outside right now just beautiful 🤩 It’s hard to believe that it’s +5 in December right now but I think we’re the only place that’s brown or green in Alberta so I’m very thankful for that at the moment I think Calgary and Edmonton have a decent amount of snow pack Want to run around one of the watersheds in Lethbridge it’s still froze over although the rivers you can see some ripples in it of water moving . Dixie and I had to start running just as the sun was going down. I still have to go grocery shopping after this blog post so I’m looking forward to that. 3.8 km and 32 minutes  I really wanna do 5 km in 30 minutes at least once in 2025 Gotta pick up the pace for that have to be at least five - Six And seven minute pace per kilometre for that to happen for a few laps proceeding  each other lap This run I felt the best I have in all my runs that I have done so that’s good. I was well trained or had a good traini...

Early morning run and cleaned

  I do an early morning run and then lifted weights with a bit of cleaning of the house. 🏡  At about ten to six I leave my house 🏡 to run 4.22 km with the dog 🐕, Dixie has been sleeping by my feet all day and is well behaving after her long run. 🏃‍♂️ I listened to delusion of crowds this morning on my run and am about 90% through it. I ran with a huge flashlight 🔦 that looks like it could clobber something good 😊 7000 lumens. Last night I was at about 250 km on my Camino run 🏃‍♂️  No today at about 2:20 PM I’m far beyond that now With my run 🏃‍♂️ and cleaning house I’ve sure climb up on km’s 13 km done today by 2:20 pm My weight was actually around 25 minutes in total with pauses between lifting weights, but I was only 11 minutes of constantly lifting My VO two max is increasing is now fair and instead of being poor for a VO2 max for the longest time.  Have already done my run 🏃‍♂️  Had to stop short cause I started throwing up 🤮  I don’t kno...

Lamb and Cards at Parents House

   Kim and I go over to my parents for a game of cards 🃏 and the Lamb 🐑 dinner 🍽️  We have a game of Skippo a card game with the four of us.  Enjoy a dinner out,  Kim looks beautiful 🤩 out tonight.  I think the best out of the Christmas 🎄 we’ve spent together.  She has done good for her self this year. I am about to go for a run with the dog tonight. Kim did walk the dog for a bit before we went for dinner at my parents. Kim said she loved spending time with my parents. And was a pleasure to be around tonight! We had mint sauce that you can’t get in Canada anymore. It’s from years ago when it was still available in Canada. 🇨🇦  This has been our favourite mint sauce for the longest time.   I’m about to go for a run 🏃‍♂️ tonight. I might add it to the blog if I get out at 7:30 now I’d like to do 5 km. Sitting by the Christmas tree 🎄 by the fire 🔥 at the beginning of the night, I asked to take a photo. It sounds like you had a lovely e...

5 km, 1 Celsius run Riverstone

 It gets dark at 4:34 so the photo wasn’t so good today Dixie and I get running we do a 5 km boat. If I did it another minute of running I would’ve got 5 km wow such. My VO2 max climbed one point so I’m happy about that Dixie fell on our leader board for December. She was ran 28 and now she’s ranked 31 for December leaderboard So far I’ve done 11.5 km today. That’s what my steps counted. So far, I only have to do 10.8 km to reach my goal of 50 km each week. The goal is tomorrow to do a couple walks and one run. 🏃‍♂️  Plus1 Celsius today Dixie is climbing up her breed average for active minutes. She’s at 14% above average now From 5% average yesterday Some of my stats,  in a photo at the end of the blog post There were many Christmas lights everywhere down the street. It was very beautiful… The spirit when you run by will lose lights. It was an amazing time. It sounds like you had a full day of activity! Congratulations on your VO2 max improvement and hitting 11.5 km alre...
