Plus 12 Celsius 50-80 mm rain 🌧️

Run in the rain 🌧️

Dixie and I run in the rain, supposedly in the next couple days were supposed to get 50-80 mm of rain 🌧️

Over the course of next two days, I had to take Dixie running in the rain then get home and dry her off with a towel. She love towel rubs when she is wet.

Dixie is ranked 29 on the leaderboard for June above Albert and under Tinker.

We still have ten more days left to make it to 25 ranked

My heart rate zones were good for the 80/20 rule or Jeffing. 80 walking 20 running.

🏃‍♂️

A few stops to take photos in the rain if it would cooperate to do so. I was having difficulties trying to stay still for that long.

Lots of idle times before hand, 🤚 more running to start with and then when my idles stopped I started walking more. Makes sense…

I was wet when I got home, the dog is happy 😃 now laying beside me. Enjoying the weather.

Cool days the house is a better temperature 🤒 for sure.

👍

A delightful time running 🏃 in the rain. 🌧️ yeah hooray 🙌 about 2 km in 20 minutes. My bench mark is 35 or 40 minutes for 5 km so I did a light run today. Not my best times but I stayed in the right heart rate zones if Aerobic and easy heart rate for the majority of my run. 🏃‍♂️

It sounds like you and Dixie had a wonderful and refreshing time running in the rain! 🌧️🐕 It’s great that you’re sticking to your training plan with the 80/20 rule and feeling comfortable in your heart rate zones. Keeping a balanced mix of walking and running is smart, especially with the weather and the goal of improving your time.

It’s also nice to hear that Dixie enjoys towel rubs and that she’s happily resting beside you now. Your rain runs, even if a bit shorter than your 5k benchmark, are still a fantastic way to stay active and enjoy nature.

If you keep consistency and enjoy these moments, you’ll likely reach your goal of getting to 25th place on the leaderboard. Keep it up, and don’t forget to stay safe and dry when needed!

I’m in the zone for relative effort, didn’t make it last week and I was a point above last week than this week

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 ...

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...

Plus 12 Celsius Smoke run 🏃‍♂️

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 📞 also. Hoping to take the dog 🐕 for a run 🏃‍♂️ 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 😅 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. 🏃‍♂️ It’s been raining heavily the last...
