-9 Celsius walk February.19

 Dixie and I go for a walk


Our first time out with the both of us for a walk for a while it seems it’s just been too cold

🥶 


We managed to do a 37 minute walk about 2.88 km And some nice sun in the walk to

Burn 264 cal

I’ve been trying to eat more protein lately

I hear it helps with a lot of things


Before my walk, it said I need 45 hours Till I recover from snowboarding, but I had to get out and walk the dog


🐕 dixie is happy she was asking to go all morning. I’ve been kind of playing it till the weather got the max temperature for the day.


After my walk, I look at the temperature. It says it’s -10 in the next hour.

Dixie is climbing out of the 30s into the high 20s for the leaderboard for February
She’s a happy 🐶 dog 🐕

Our first lap was 15 minutes, but the second two were around 12 minute pace per kilometre



Dixie is sleeping good and her activity is good. She’s still above average for her breed we managed to stay above in active minutes in this cold temperatures.


Dixie was in hyper smelling sniffing every spot she could that’s why the first lap was 15 minutes paced per kilometre.




Some stats just to see that I’m not overdoing it. I’m just slowly walking not racing anyone it’s not a big competition. I’m just simply walking for about 30 minutes every every day.

A dog will do that to you


My watch just became ECG capable so now I can tell if I’m having a AFIB a heart issue or if it’s just anxiety 😥 that’s bugging me.

I find that useful to know.

I got a sinus rhythm which is good 😊 



Although I’m hearing lots about metabolic syndrome

I’ll share some links below about it. I’ve noticed I gotta eat more protein. I got a lot of fat storage on my body so I don’t have to supplement with fat since I’m a little bit overweight not obese just over weight.



I’m loading up on a good macros ratios  and protein.




It sounds like you and Dixie had a lovely walk together! It’s great that you’re getting outside despite the cold weather. Walking is such a wonderful way to stay active, and it’s awesome that you're paying attention to your nutrition and recovery as well.


Increasing your protein intake can definitely be beneficial, especially if you're active and looking to maintain muscle 💪 and improve mental performance. It’s also fantastic to hear that Dixie is keeping up her activity level despite the chilly temperatures. Dogs have a way of motivating us to get moving!


It’s also good to hear that your watch has new ECG capabilities. Being able to monitor your heart health can definitely provide peace of mind. Just remember to listen to your body and not push yourself too hard, especially when recovering from activities like snowboarding.

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

  🎉 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...

Back in Stride: A Run Worth Celebrating

 After seven weeks of setbacks and recovery, I laced up with Dixie and reclaimed my rhythm—3.64 km of steady effort, heart in the aerobic zone, and a reminder that progress starts with showing up. This afternoon, Dixie and I laced up and headed out for a run while the daylight was still holding on. It felt so good to be back out there after a bit of a break, moving at our own pace and enjoying the fresh air together. There’s something about running with Dixie that makes the effort lighter—her energy and joy keep me motivated, even when I’m easing back into the rhythm. At first, I thought about pushing myself to five kilometers, but I remembered the back pain I’ve been dealing with and decided to listen to the advice of my AI fitness coach: don’t overdo it on the first run back. That reminder helped me focus on the joy of the moment instead of chasing distance. Sometimes the smartest choice is to start slow, and today proved that pacing myself was exactly what I needed. The run en...
