🏃♂️ New running shoe day!
🏃♂️ Thinking about my grandmother on today’s run. She was a bright spark and warm hug for 100 years 😢
🏃♂️ Lovely weather for a run
🏊♂️ 🚴 🏃♂️ Here we go again!
🍁 Starting to feel like Fall on today’s run 🏃♂️
🏃♂️ Preparing for this weekend’s gluttony with an easy (mostly) trail run
🏃♂️ I was very lucky to win a pair of Arc’teryx Norvans at the recent Truth & Reconciliation Trail Run. I picked them up today and look forward to trying them out. Big thanks to Arc’teryx for the support!
🏃♂️ The 3rd Annual Truth & Reconciliation Trail Run in support of Anduhyaun Women’s Shelter was great, though difficult, fun. Lots of hills on this one

🏃♂️ Tried a new trail near the in-law’s house for today’s run
🏃♂️ 8 minute zone 3 repeats on today’s run. Feels like summer out there
🏃♂️ Back on a track for this morning’s run. I’ve been away from speed work for too long.
🏃♂️ Coming across this World War 1 monument, seemingly in the middle of nowhere while running on a country road, was a good reminder of the sacrifices people have made for us
🏃♂️ I find it easier to keep good form at faster paces. So, practicing staying tall at a more moderate pace
🏃♂️ Inspired by finishing The Lost Art of Running to pay attention to my form. For this run I focused on running tall and looking forward. Tough to maintain on the hills
🏃♂️ All runs here are hill training
🏃♂️ Easing back into a routine

🏊♂️🚴♂️🏃♂️ 2024 Milton Sprint Triathlon
Sunday, June 2, 2024
My third year in a row for this one and, despite pouring rain for the entire race, it was still fun and well organized. My times across the three have been within minutes of each other. Although this one was slowest of the three, given the conditions, I’m happy with the overall results and ended up 12th in my age group. At least in the swim, it didn’t matter that it was raining.
🏊♂️🚴♂️🏃♂️ Ready for tomorrow
🏃♂️ Today’s run was a fun exploration of Porto
🏃♂️ Nice to be mostly on trails for today’s run
🏃♂️ A misty run this morning
🚴♂️ Nice to get out of the basement for a proper ride outside. First one of the season!
The coffe and pastries halfway through were very helpful.
🏃♂️ Classic spring weather on today’s run: started with rain and then cleared up into a sunny day 🌧️🕶️
🏃♂️ New running shoe day
🏃♂️ Dynamic run training in Training Today
Sunday, March 24, 2024
I’ve been using Training Today for a while now to track my readiness to train (RTT). They’ve recently released a new feature that provides dynamic training for running based on RTT which takes into account your current recovery and health to make sure you don’t overtrain. Generating the workouts is easy. In the iPhone app, you choose the type of run (speed, endurance, recovery, etc) and then the app shows you the structured workout, targeting your current RTT.🏃♂️ Part of today’s trail run was mostly made of broken bricks
🏃♂️ Today’s run burned off the last of the March Break cervezas. Back on the program tomorrow
🏃♂️ Misty run today
