seven sweaty sessions
As per request I spent time in the sauna over seven consecutive days: Wednesday June 22 through Tuesday June 28. It was a great way to rest and heal my knee in anticipation of the race. It was also a … Continue reading
Race day recap
I have had many people calling or emailing me asking about the run on Sunday. Perhaps it is a narrative worth sharing with everyone. I’ll see if I can add some drama to it so I have more fun reliving … Continue reading

Race day: A job half done…
I finished the course in 1:39:19. I am still alive. With respect to running 1 km for each $1 donated, I have now crossed the 50% mark. I think it is rather poetic to be half done at race day. … Continue reading

nacho cheese
What do you call stolen cheddar? Yesterday was wicked awesome. Shannon (inspirer of the “take a break” campaign) was the architect of a colossal nacho feast. But I am getting ahead of myself… Tess is back in town unexpectedly. In … Continue reading

sproing
It seems spring has sprung in Vancouver. A run in the sun this morning was an obvious thing to do. On the north side of the cambie st bridge I stopped to perform some bicycle maintenance for a man who … Continue reading
horsing
I am ostensibly running for Scotty at the moment. Rather than go for a run together we went for a drive together. We kept on driving until we got to Kalamalka Lake. We cruised up to Predator Ridge and entered … Continue reading
