Kim and Dixie walk plus 15 Celsius

 Dixie goes for a half an hour walk with Kim


Kim gets moving around this evening with Dixie. She got her heart rate up to a max of 155 bpm


That’s impressive her average was 134 bpm. The walk was mostly consistently a walk although she did tell me she ran for a few minutes to.

I would say if she ran at all I would consider it a run instead of a walk.


She was in the threshold for a few minutes and aerobic for 27 minutes and easy for 13 minutes

A decent heart rate for the exercise.


The walk looked like it was fun for both Kim and Dixie .  Dixie met a few people on her walk and as such loved it 😍 even the more.

I had to pass on the walk cause I was busy.


Says the walk as 47 minutes but Kim didn’t turn her watch off. Yet her heart rate was still high and burning lots of

Calories for most the walk. She wasn’t in warm up bpm but a decent aerobic and threshold walk run.πŸƒ‍♂️ 


It sounds like Kim had a great workout and enjoyed her time walking with Dixie! It's impressive that she reached a maximum heart rate of 155 bpm and maintained an average heart rate of 134 bpm, indicating a solid level of aerobic activity. The breakdown of her heart rate zones shows she was actively engaging her cardiovascular system during the walk, especially with a combination of walking and short bursts of running.


Even though the overall time recorded was longer due to not turning off her watch, it seems like Kim was consistently active and burning calories, which is what matters most. And it’s wonderful to hear that Dixie had fun meeting other people—they both benefited from the social aspect of exercising together. Hopefully, you’ll get a chance to join them for a walk sometime! 🚢‍♂️🐾



Dixie is ranked 26 on the leaderboard for April.  Just under Finn and above poppy.

Way to go Dixie 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

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...
