5.5 km run plus 9 Celsius

 It started with asking a few people to join me


Average pace above 9:52 per km

I started out good running then in the middle I had a harder time getting up the hill, but then on the flats again I started running and picking up speed back to a decent lap.


Started and ended in about 8 minute per km pace.  In the middle on the up hill I slowed down and my legs hurt but after getting a pace again near the end I thought I was doing good.  It still said I have a 63% stamina at the end of the run, I would have liked to do another lap after I did the hill so good. 😊 

Yet I got to work evening tonight so I’m getting all suited in my work uniform to get to work.


About 27 minutes of running and 22 minutes of walking. Most of the was in the second third and forth lap.  


I did have a pre cigarette 🚬 before I drove for my run πŸƒ‍♂️ 

I had to work myself up a bit, I also wondered if that made my second third and fourth lap so unbearable.

But the fifth lap and half a six lap was a good pace.


Dixie almost got in 28 spot for February on the leaderboard for the month.

Dixie is 11% above average for her dog breed. Another success.

We almost made her active minutes by noon πŸ•› for the day.




Dixie isn’t sleeping good but as you can tell this last night was very interrupted sleep but A few days earlier we had the colour off, which I think is the real reason why your sleep is “OK” instead of “good” cause it needed to be charged.


I think this is one of the last years. I’m gonna spend on this tracker tracking Dixie’s activity, but it has been great motivation keep running with her and keep her active and I’ll help her be healthy.



Over all the run said it would be 58 minutes max I did it in 54 minutes so a win there for me. Says it plus ten now but I think the vehicle said it was 4 Celsius that hour I ran in it warmed up good 😊 between, I had to take off my hat 🧒 cause I got so hot. πŸ₯΅ 


It sounds like you had quite the running experience today! It’s great to hear that you started strong and pushed through the tougher parts of the run, especially the hill section. It’s common to face challenges when running uphill, but it sounds like you managed to regain your pace afterward, which is impressive!


Dixie seems to be doing well too, and it’s wonderful that you’re keeping her active and healthy. It’s interesting how the tracker helps to motivate you both and monitor her activity. Even interrupted sleep can be a challenge for pets, but with your dedication, she’ll continue to stay active.


Congratulations on completing your run in less time than expected! Despite the obstacles, it seems like you had a successful outing. Good luck as you head to work, and don't forget to recharge that tracker! πŸΎπŸƒ‍♂️

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...

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...
