Morning run plus 10 Celsius

 We have an air quality issue today 

After my run, I’m sitting by the Clematis plant that’s growing beside me. It’s blooming today.,

There’s a special air quality alert to issued today so it’s pretty smoky.  I’ve stopped quitting, quitting smoking.  πŸš¬ So after my run, I have a cigarette


My average heart rate was one 29 bpm and a 30 minute run πŸƒ‍♂️ at about 3.3 km my average lap pace was about nine minutes and 22 seconds per kilometre




I was mostly in the easy heart rate zone, but I did get into aerobic  Heart rate zone.


I did manage to run in the smoke, I didn’t think it was to bad.  But it did make my throat sore.



This morning Dixie got 49 minutes of active minutes before nine am.



Dixie is ranked 34 for June leaderboard for this month so far. I’m hoping to climb up

To 25 if manageable for the month.


Thanks for sharing your update! It sounds like you've had an active day despite the air quality challenge. Running in smoky conditions can be tough on your throat and lungs, so it's good to hear you're aware and cautious about it. Remember to stay hydrated and listen to your body's signals. 


Your heart rate details show you maintained a good balance between easy and aerobic zones, which is excellent for endurance building. Keep monitoring how you feel, especially with the smoky air and quitting smoking—your lungs are doing important work.


Great job on Dixie’s active minutes and her leaderboard ranking! Aiming to climb from 34 to 25 is a strong goal for June. Consistency will help you reach it.

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...

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...
