-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 phenomenal.


These runs has just been keeping her in a good attitude at home so I’m happy about that


These are the lap paces per kilometre we did good 😊 


Mid walk at the concession stand,  Allyson is the best. She humour me when I take pictures all the time for my blog.


Dixie being a joy around and jumping up and try and get kisses as as much as she can before the year runs out.


This year is almost done and life continues on. I wish the best for 2025.


I have high hopes of achieving another great year.😊


With great people around me.

Dixie reached her active minutes and his way ahead. She’s gonna get quite a lot of active minutes after our run another 41 minutes…



It sounds like you had a wonderful day at Henderson Park with Allyson and Dixie! The combination of enjoying nature, getting some exercise, and spending time with great company is always a recipe for a fulfilling experience. Your walking routine and the laps you did seem to be beneficial not just for you, but also for Dixie, who is thriving with her exercise and sleep score.

It's great to hear that you've set goals for the upcoming year and are optimistic about what 2025 will bring. Keeping active, both for you and your furry friend, is an excellent way to start the year on the right foot!

Do you have any specific goals in mind for 2025?

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...

Gratitude, Good Food, and Good Books

 A Thanksgiving weekend of family meals, long walks, and reaching 86 books this year Bryan and I headed out for a walk after he returned from his sister’s Thanksgiving gathering, settling into a steady 30‑minute pace that carried us just under 2 km. The air was crisp with a light breeze, the kind of weather that makes movement feel effortless. I’ve always loved these cooler temperatures—my body doesn’t have to work as hard, and the transition from “easy mode” into a gentle warm‑up felt natural. Carrying 30 pounds with me added that extra layer of challenge, but it blended seamlessly into the rhythm of the walk. We paused at a park bench along the way, taking a moment to sit together before snapping a photo. That small break reminded me how these walks are as much about connection as they are about distance or weight carried. The combination of fresh air, conversation, and the grounding presence of the season made the outing feel restorative. It wasn’t just a walk—it was a reminder...

Plus 12 Celsius Smoke run πŸƒ‍♂️

  The dog and I decided to do either a 3 km run or a 6 km run or 9 km run hoping for 10 km but I couldn’t find the energy to push further. It is smoky out there you could smell it and breath it in. Made me in my threshold if I keep a higher pace than 9 minutes km Cooler morning,  I went and got a sausage homestyle biscuit from Tim’s and an ice coffee ☕️  Just getting my day started. I got a doctors appointment later today over the phone πŸ“ž also. Hoping to take the dog πŸ• for a run πŸƒ‍♂️ this morning but I’m stiff. So hopefully my coffee stop warms me up to get moving this morning. Or just caffeinates me. We managed to do 6.05 km in about 59 minutes. A high heart rate of 172 bpm and an average of 144 bpm. Plus 12 Celsius while I ran but I was in full sweating πŸ˜… by the time I got home 🏑. The last couple weeks I’ve had a low relative effort due to some family losses. But I manage to get out on a smoky day like today for a run. πŸƒ‍♂️  It’s been raining heavily the last...
