Sugar bowl Coalbanks trail closed????

 Another walk today W-Toby


Toby and I are giving the camera a thumbs up as we start walking to the sugar bowl to get to CoalBanks Trail.

Originally thinking would walk a little little bit further, but the trail ended and was blocked off with signs saying public access, access not recommended so he turned around.


Kind of spooky πŸ‘» I’m sure there’s reasons, I’m not going to go into it.

But we walked under the scenic over pass and came to these signs.

Dixie is happy with how many steps were doing today. She’s like just thrilled with amusement. She sits on the bench right beside me for a photo..

Laughing πŸ˜† and smiling πŸ™‚ 


I asked Toby to walk ahead for me to take a photo of him walking away.  I thought it make a good photo, not much of a poet mid afternoon, Toby make a good pace.πŸ€—  we make good time doing our walk.


All ready we are at 28 ranked for the month for Dixie in her leadership month of active minutes.



She well over her active minutes in her day. Tomorrow will show how much above average.


Our map consisted of….


With walking and a little bit of moving around to do laundry at home I’ve almost made it to 5 km today with steps although I didn’t track my first walk the second walk did 2 km.


A pleasure walking with Toby today we picked up some soda from Victoria BC it was a different kind of soda.  πŸ₯€ not the brand names you usually see..


It had real cane sugar in it, and tasted Phenomenal.


A rarity at a special grocer store 🏬.


It sounds like you had a wonderful day out walking with Toby! Exploring trails and enjoying the fresh air is always refreshing. It’s interesting that you encountered that blocked-off section — it definitely adds a bit of mystery to your adventure! 


Dixie must be so proud of both of you for hitting those steps and being active. It’s great to see how active she is! Your journey of nearly 5 km with additional walking at home sounds like a solid exercise day. And how fun to try a different kind of soda from Victoria BC — it’s always nice to find unique treats while on an outing!

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 ...

Celebrating Ten Years and Living My Best Life🧘‍♂️ A Quiet Day at Home

  πŸŽ‰ Celebrating 10 Years Together Last night was a beautiful celebration of a decade spent with Kim. We marked our 10-year anniversary with a cozy dinner at The Keg, where I indulged in a hearty 20 oz steak and Kim opted for a more modest 8 oz cut. It felt so good to get out together and enjoy a special evening. We kept things simple—just water to drink, with fresh bread and salad to start. The atmosphere was perfect, and I soaked in every moment of our time together. We’re incredibly grateful for our families, who made the night even more special. My parents generously gave us cash to enjoy our dinner, and Kim’s parents gifted us movie money so we could extend the celebration. Their thoughtfulness reminded us how lucky we are to be surrounded by love and support. Family and friends made it sweeter We were so blessed by our families: my parents gave us cash to enjoy the night and Kim’s parents sent money for a movie treat. Our friends even gifted us a 20% tip card for the meal...

Night run 5 Celsius πŸƒ‍♂️

  Night run πŸƒ‍♂️ after work  Dixie and I get running at 11 pm at night.  After work I do a 45 minute run πŸƒ‍♂️ doing 5 km we started at 10:12. It was 5 Celsius outside and I felt warm running πŸƒ‍♂️  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...
