MΓ©tis trail to coalbank gate to coalbrook gate

 


I get following a tracker tire πŸ›ž path. It’s interesting 🀨 cause the farmer πŸ§‘‍🌾 or some one drove in to make this path right to the end of a gated road.


Do I walk the path with Dixie. To get to MΓ©tis trail.




I forgot to start my track on it when I started at it only said I did 5 km but it was more like six or seven km.



The dog tracker says 6 any way I had to run the last bit. Nothing is no more of a motivator than getting home 🏑 in timely manner. The sun ☀️ rises at six and goes down about nine now. So I was expecting to be home before nine.

I had to run. πŸƒ‍♂️ πŸ•

I got my bpm up to 180.

Best pace was 4.22 km

I got to check my vo2 max is.






Over all a decent run, 


The dog was running circles at the end while I ran home. Dixie was on a leash and wanted to faster and dinner, so she was running to me and away in circles.


A bit of fun, when I got home Kim dried off Dixie. I had to run πŸƒ‍♂️ in quickly out of the rain ☔️ 




Dixie is sleeping πŸ’€ good and active is good 😊.


And she is above average in her active minutes.


She doing great in cooler temperatures and she really enjoyed my day off.

It says I’m productive today for training status so that makes me feel great 😊 



I got to do something with my VO2 max I’ve been a long term smoker for years now decades so that don’t help but making a run at 4.22 /km pace helped.





I did run in the rain, it said it wasn’t going to rain til nine but it started at eight and I was walking by 7:30 πŸ•’ 

I’ll have to do a health check today.

It sounds like you had quite the adventure with Dixie! It’s great to hear that you made it through the run, even with the unexpected rain. Running at that pace is impressive, especially if you’re working on your VO2 max. It's good to keep track of your health, especially considering your long-term smoking history. 


If you’re looking to improve your VO2 max, consider incorporating interval training, cross-training, and perhaps even some strength training into your routine. Also, staying hydrated and maintaining a balanced diet can really help with your overall fitness. 


Dixie sounds like a great companion; it's wonderful that she enjoyed the day with you. 


AllTrails route I do another two miles total one mile there and one mile back to get.to this route. I do a mile in I think 17 minutes

Plus 4 Celsius 6.1 km in a hour πŸƒ‍♂️

  Dixie and I go for a run  πŸƒ‍♂️ 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ƒ‍♂️   It looks like it will be 13 Celsius by noon but it feels warmer in the sun. ☀️  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 ...

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...

Walk and a run in to the vet

 Another adventure for Dixie,  she is an expensive dog….πŸ• We enjoy 😊 our walks. Up top of the coulee you can see the university  Sonny and I go walking the south side dog park,  it tricky terrain for sure.  It’s nice 😊 for the scenery I think, yet a bit treacherous at times.  A person has to be careful let alone a dog πŸ• being careful. Here is Sonny and I smiling giving a thumbs up to the camera πŸ“Έ  The walk was decent though some difficult 😞 parts for today, Dixie is on a 14 day hiatus from walking.  She’ll probably want to go sooner rather than later. I think we’re stuck to just five minute poop πŸ’© walks than the hour or two hour walks we usually do. I’m unsure when it happen but my guess is near the end of the walk when I noticed it. Dixie gets to close to the bushes today, I kept looking her over but noticed a different spot on her at the end of our walk.   Dixie goes through some bushes and gouged a piece out of her. Now Dixie has th...
