..works best on small screens!
Scenes from the trails and races where I spend a lot of my free time. I’m perpetually in some kind of training mode. Races. Fitness. Distance. Streaks. Or just good old fashioned peer pressure. This site is nothing of not stuffed full of running posts and pics.

8r4d day eleven of my #running streak was another morning lap of the neighbourhood shortly before lunch, and almost soon enough to beat the returning heat and lingering #firesmoke

8r4d #running streak day ten and I got my 6k run around the hood done even as the day was getting a lot smokier out. It’s supposed to be a warm week, which I had hoped to avoid by doing this into September, but I guess #summer isn’t quite done with us yet. #firesmoke

8r4d The biggest challenge of day eight of my #running streak is navigating my timing around tomorrow’s anticipated longer Sunday run. I squeezed in a neighbourhood five kick tour before lunch, and before the heat of the day really set in.... with still lots of recovery time before meeting the crew in the morning. [read more...]

Reimer Park
8r4d To cap off a week long #running streak (to be continued of course!) I went down to the dog park on a Friday morning and set off into the wild yonder across the bridge from there. They winding trip back was the most interesting by far.

8r4d #running streak day six was a wee bit of adventure in the southern suburbs of the city, and the temps were just about right for a late summer six klicks

8r4d Despite the waning #firesmoke I went out #running late afternoon for day 4 of my streak. The traffic was busy and being the first day of back to school there were a lot of somber looking kids walking home.

8r4d The #firesmoke ruined a perfectly good #running day but I didn’t let it thwart my early ambitions to try for a steak this month. I’ve logged at least 5 klicks three days in a row, not much, but every streak starts with a first, second and third run, right?

8r4d Sunday #running and we started a bit early to beat the heat, starting in the shade as much as we could manage.
