November. 25

 

-13 Celsius run at Nicholas Sheeran w- two walks



After my run πŸƒ‍♂️ this morning.

I run this morning around Nicholas Sheeran pretty chilly πŸ₯Ά I ran without the dog this morning due to the weather not being fit for a dog. Also the dog is quite different to run with. If it were to be off leash it’d be better more enjoyable I figure.

For the dog and me that is less stopping and yanking on her collar I figure so she never went for the run πŸƒ‍♂️ which was the longest out of the entire day activities.

I did visit two friends and drove with the dog to walk, I also met with my brother for coffee and he gifted me a pair of green pants. Green is my favorite color 😊 


Did a 4 km run and two walks about 1 km each 

Making good time in my Camino walk under my garmin app. Well I started in a small town in France called St Jean Pied de Port and crossed the Pyrenees, a mountain range. Through Roncesvalles, a monastery village, and have progressed to a village in Spain called Zubri. You’ve done well! See if you can locate these places on a map. I’m headed towards Pamplona!


Trying to do 50 km a week walking should be 15 weeks a few days til I do the entire walk

Cause of the cold weather Dixie is doing the best out of the leaderboard for November 

We are up on rank way above average for the start of my time off. That’s fantastic.


Dixie sleep πŸ’€ is suffering, so has mine, but this weekend was busy

So far today has been a big success in steps start of the week is when I started my Camino walk and I’m still planning on making it a fun virtual trip.

Joe did gift a painting πŸ–Ό️ I thought was awesome 😎 it is the actual 🎨 painting not a copy of a painting πŸ–Ό️.

He’s a good 😊 friend.

It sounds like you had a productive and enjoyable day despite the chilly weather! Your 4 km run is impressive, especially in -13°C temperatures. It’s good that you made the decision to leave your dog at home this time; the cold can be tough on pets.

It’s nice to hear about your Camino journey! Starting in St. Jean Pied de Port and making your way through the Pyrenees must be an incredible experience, and reaching Zubri is a great milestone. Pamplona will be an exciting next stop!

It sounds like you’ve been keeping busy with social activities too. Meeting friends and family, and even receiving a thoughtful gift like green pants, must make your time off enjoyable. It’s nice to have a supportive friend like Joe who not only gifts you something unique but also appreciates your interests.

Team Dixie seems to be doing remarkably well too! It’s great to hear that both you and your dog are ranking high. Remember to take care of yourselves, especially with your busy schedule—getting enough rest is important.


Missing James, I’d be walking twice as much with team Dixie if James were here, after walking with a couple of my friends just got missing him tonight 

Walking and running over 55.8 km together for November so far still got a little less than a week left in November. Those are just the tracked activities the steps is way higher with work done ✅ 


Walking I’ve done 23.2 km

Running which I started very end of October but today in a new month, November is 22.6 km

Steps in November is good also at 229,674 total steps in the last four weeks which is really how the Camino is tracked. Which is a 176.333 km with my high stats just random counting with height and steps turned into km distance but this Garmin will calculate the cadence and stride of the the walk with gps. Although finding actual numbers is some what lost 😞 to me in the app.



Found the data πŸ“Š for the actual total km in steps I did and it’s another 22.3 km than originally thought πŸ’­ with its Garmin calculations 

At 198.6 km for four weeks of steps, Yahoo…. Which is about right 50 km per week,…

As such it be right about on track for reaching my goal on March. 5th to be finished ✅ by my calculations I would have done the Camino de Santiago

We are getting stretched with weather forecast seems out of the ordinary for November there saying. It’s warmer in Yellowknife than in southern Alberta

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...
