8r4d An evening dog #walk turned into a casual late-summer stroll and some long light photos.

8r4d #runclub #running and we toured the suburban streets and legged it up some respectable if modest hills as we weaved through the late summer asphalt glow

8r4d It really is all about expression, isn’t it? I mean, that’s the reason I post all this stuff. Online blogs. On apps. Anywhere. The internet has given us this tinderbox of personal expression where anyone can say anything, make money from advice or creativity or entertainment or humour or hate. [read more...]

8r4d #terryfoxrun 2025 in #reddeer was day sixteen of my #running streak, and maybe the last day of my streak too. No better way to finish off a fitness foundation building effort than on the trail of an #ohcanada #cancer hero. [read more...]

8r4d #running everyday for exactly two weeks is exhausting. It’s not so much the distance, but the lack of proper rest and recovery between runs means that some days it feels like you haven’t stopped for much more than a nap, and to your body not leaving enough time between runs is as good as not resting at all. So it kinda starts to be like running one really long run broken into segments, rather than multiple runs.

Good news tho, my new #headphones arrived in the mail yesterday and I got to try them out on run number fourteen of my streak. They are bone conduction headphones so they don’t block the ole ear holes and are supposed to be safer for situational awareness like traffic and heavy machinery.

8r4d The sun was setting and I ran into an old coworker sitting on the ground talking pics of the sunset and her dog. If you squint and zoom…

8r4d Lucky #running streak day thirteen and we logged nearly seven klicks in the lingering heat of the trails thru Mill Creek.

8r4d Day twelve of #running streaks took me down into the river valley. I cheated a bit and parked near the trail head so I could spend more time in the trails and less on the hot asphalt road in between. [read more...]
