Kim and I go Rucker Walking 🚶‍♂️

Kim and I start out a 3.5 km walk start of May long weekend Friday afternoon

There was frost this morning and lots of fog in the river bottom but up on top of the coulee there was no fog. 🌫️

A decent walk, over by the iconic Sunridge Bridge 🌁. I am well above my weekly exercise for relative effort each week for my exercise routine

The exercise is decent I feel it in my stomach the most, or it could just be I’m hungry 🤤

Plus 10 Celsius for a walk.

No for real though my abs are tight from walking with 30 lbs around the park.

3.5 km in 55 minutes

351 calories later my average heart rate was 121 bpm average, my max was 138 bpm.

Kim says she likes my pace with the weight cause it slows me down to every two steps of hers I do one so she feels she can keep up better.

Average pace per km was 15:44 minutes. Not bad I figure. Going to try to relax and watch a movie tonight with Kim.

Strava says I was mostly in the endurance zone for most the exercising. So that’s good 😊

Most of the entire walk was in easy heart rate mode. But I even know with lifting weights that can be exhausting and straining also walking with a 30 lbs weight in my pack makes me feel like every muscle was being used.

It sounds like you had a great walk and a solid workout! Walking 3.5 km in 55 minutes with a weighted pack is impressive, especially since you’re engaging almost all your muscles and maintaining a good heart rate zone.

Your effort clearly paid off—burning 351 calories and keeping in the endurance zone is fantastic for your fitness. Plus, having Kim alongside seems to make it enjoyable and motivating for both of you.

Relaxing with a movie tonight sounds like a well-earned way to recover.

Dixie is 8 % above her dog breed at the moment and ranked 28 on the leaderboard for May. She went up on rank again

Plus 4 Celsius 6.1 km in a hour 🏃‍♂️

Dixie and I go for a run 🏃‍♂️ 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 🏃‍♂️ 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 ...

Walk and a run in to the vet

Another adventure for Dixie, she is an expensive dog….🐕 We enjoy 😊 our walks. Up top of the coulee you can see the university Sonny and I go walking the south side dog park, it tricky terrain for sure. It’s nice 😊 for the scenery I think, yet a bit treacherous at times. A person has to be careful let alone a dog 🐕 being careful. Here is Sonny and I smiling giving a thumbs up to the camera 📸 The walk was decent though some difficult 😞 parts for today, Dixie is on a 14 day hiatus from walking. She’ll probably want to go sooner rather than later. I think we’re stuck to just five minute poop 💩 walks than the hour or two hour walks we usually do. I’m unsure when it happen but my guess is near the end of the walk when I noticed it. Dixie gets to close to the bushes today, I kept looking her over but noticed a different spot on her at the end of our walk. Dixie goes through some bushes and gouged a piece out of her. Now Dixie has th...

A fawn born on our yard

A baby fawn was born on our lawn and it’s trying to warm up in the asphalt I’m guessing it’s still warm. We’re trying to give it space hopefully it mother comes by so we’re staying inside. I just went outside for a smoke and it crawled under the vehicle 🚗 lots of people are walking by it not noticing it then others are stopping. Quite the thing to see. A few hours old… it’s still wet with mucus on it. With Kim’s super camera zoom is we could see Fish and wild life say to call in 24 hours if animals are left by moms So we’re hoping people leave the fawn alone. Although it’s a super cool 😎 thing to see. I think it hoofs are still soft from being born that’s why it’s staying put since it went on that hard surface till it’s hoofs Harden. It crawled on its knees after the side walk and just hunkered down for a bit. Two hours from first spotting. Still there hiding under the vehicle 🚗 it kind of a good spot of course there’s better picked spots but it’s half and hal...
