10 km walk run

 


Dixie and I do a 10 km walk and run. I had my best walking pace of a runner at 8.5 pace for one lap the morning. Ran up to my fastest a 4 pace per mile or km I think my laps were done in miles 1.6 km. Says my average pace was 12 per km but I never stopped my watch on my water breaks that could have taken up 20 minutes between 2-4 laps.  So I think my top pace was the most accurate for most the walk. Or around 10 a pace per km.




A decent start of the day. I’m trying to upload my dogs tracker minutes and having difficulty hopefully by end of day I’ll have her stats updated. Check out my walking activity on Garmin Connect. #beatyesterday my stats uploaded.





Running down hill at the moment.  Up hill I walked it, but it was a decent morning.  I wanted to double my five km walks I do in an hour and do a two hour walk. I did take breaks in between them to catch up. Even had two or three walk down cigarettes 🚬 near the end.

My max heart rate hit up to 181 for five minutes on the walk.  I’m happy πŸ˜ƒ with reaching my max for that long.


Ran down this with the yellow line showing the route I took.
An awesome 😎 morning. The dog is wellbeing is a priority during summer and she loved the Nigel time spent together.

Stopped at my parents both ways to get water for the dog. It got hot πŸ₯΅ I got cover in sweaty πŸ₯΅ dust and can feel it on my face. I still want to do two sessions of 20 minutes of weights today.
That’ll be posted later today in this blog.




Walking and running the gravel road. A decent amount of running πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ.




I had to walk the fire πŸ”₯ hall road to make sure I made my ten km. 
I was ready to go home 🏑 that’s when I had two to three smokes walking here.
I just had to.

The river is quite low as you can see from my usual post I take photos at.  I heard the snow pack on glaciers mountains is 123% above conditions. And this week is when it melts so I’m wondering how high the river will get this weekend. I’m watching it low right now as I see.


You can see the mountains πŸ”οΈ at the edge of the city πŸ™οΈ and the mountains πŸ”οΈ are blanketed in white snow. ❄️.



The dog πŸ• walking stats are in,
For noon πŸ•› at least.



We got to 28 leaderboards from 38 spot just this morning.
Yahoo.
Dixie sleep πŸ’€ is good and activity is great 😊 and that’s a happy dog πŸ•. 10 km walk with her and she did not complain the entire time. Just laughing πŸ˜† with peer enjoyment with our time. She now relaxing this all came about cause the dog πŸ• was asking to go for a walk and wouldn’t leave me alone whine to every room following me saying let’s get a walking.

It sounds like you had a really active and fulfilling day with Dixie! It's great to hear that you both enjoyed your walk and run together. It's important to prioritize your dog's well-being, especially during the summer months. Taking breaks and making sure Dixie stays hydrated are key for a successful outing.

Reaching your maximum heart rate for five minutes is quite an accomplishment! Remember to listen to your body and take breaks when needed. It's also wonderful that Dixie had such a positive experience and stayed happy and active throughout the walk.

Keeping track of your activities and setting goals like doubling your walks are fantastic ways to stay motivated and healthy. It's impressive that you're planning to do two sessions of weights later in the day too. 

As for the river levels and snowpack conditions, it's always interesting to observe how nature changes throughout the seasons. Stay safe and enjoy your upcoming weekend adventures!

Keep up the great work with your fitness and enjoy your time.

Plus 4 Celsius 6.1 km in a hour πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

  Dixie and I go for a run  πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ Dixie and I go for a run, redo a hill run down and up again. Kim picks me up after I climb the hill, I called her and asked since I was over my hour mark, originally I wanted to do 9 km in an hour but I managed to do six km instead.  I think it was the hill climb that did it.  I ran fully down hill no problem 😌 We made good time.  For a hill run πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ   It looks like it will be 13 Celsius by noon but it feels warmer in the sun. β˜€οΈ  I took a picture by the usual spot that judge where the river is from other years and with that rain the last couple days it definitely looks a lot better than what it was a few weeks ago Dixie went off leash for a bit and went to the river. Must’ve been cold. I think for April water dip. I managed to bring my VO2 max up to good 😊 today, it’s the first time I’ve put it in the green since owning my second Garmin. So my goal right now is to get an endurance score over 5099 To move past ...

Night run 5 Celsius πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

  Night run πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ after work  Dixie and I get running at 11 pm at night.  After work I do a 45 minute run πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ doing 5 km we started at 10:12. It was 5 Celsius outside and I felt warm running πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ  I’m sweat πŸ˜“ a lot less than I did when I started I’d be in a full soaked sweat πŸ˜… the last six months I’ve improved 450 plus percent  That’s a good feeling, I’m happy πŸ˜ƒ to say.  Making a difference in my life and how I feel. Journaling, exercising, reading… Hey guys, Uh πŸ™„ I was wondering if any of you had remedies for reducing  Eh um  πŸ˜ cough… The feelings of existential dread and facing and bearing the weight of the crashing realities of life. Do you think turmeric will help?!?! I ask myself is exercise really like meditation where you get brain clarity and pay more attention to books or life. All of a sudden a gym membership looks doable this morning  a February post I go to say. Both is doable.  Life and books You don’t need a gym mem...

Walk mid October with my Mom

  Walks with my mom The water looks like glass just crystal smooth.  My mom and I are walking to the river and in life. It’s like we’re always walking away.  Getting closer to the end, my poet mind says.   I say I got to enjoy these walks and I was silent most the walk just trying to enjoy 😊 my time with her. Or walk end more so with 🐾 paw printed pants πŸ‘– from dogs jumping.  We say maybe a dozen dogs πŸ•. A wonderful time.  I often thought it was too early to spell like alcohol.  But surprised to pass another walker, but each to their own I probably smell like an ashtray. Although I never smoked or chewed tobacco on my walk.  I just want to walk with my mom.  Often times I don’t think I could spit out everything I wanted to say so much so that I just said in these moments you don’t have to chew tobacco and say anything. Dixie and both us individually by the fallen tree arch. A path going to the river, under which most the trees 🌳 there are...
