This morning I was awake right about 5:30am because I had managed to get to bed at a decent time last night. It looked like a beautiful morning out even though it was a bit chilly I decided to start my morning the way I used to all the time. Early morning used to beContinue reading “Early Morning Run”

Fitbit Observations
So far I’ve been wearing my Fitbit for almost three weeks and have come up with a few interesting observations about it. For the most part I really enjoy tracking everything and having a record, but at the same time there have been parts which have been depressing. My water intake is really good, IContinue reading “Fitbit Observations”
Snowy Run
It’s been a couple days since I’d been for a run and I was missing it. The weather has been cold and snowing so I wasn’t looking forward to going out. Today I was missing it though and decided I needed to go out. Dressed up in a few layers and put on some ofContinue reading “Snowy Run”
Christmas 2015
It’s amazing how much a difference a day can make. Yesterday was Christmas Eve, and it was a bit overwhelming. All the kids seemed to have too much stored energy and it was coming out and not always in the best ways. There was lots of bickering and arguing going on. It was a busyContinue reading “Christmas 2015”
Fitbit vs Runkeeper
For the past few days when I’m out running I’ve been tracking my runs with both Runkeeper and my new Fitbit Surge. Even if I was extremely happy with Fitbit’s tracking I would still be doubling up with Runkeeper at least until the end of the year when my goal is reached. The first dayContinue reading “Fitbit vs Runkeeper”
Getting Close
Sometime this week I will be hitting my goal of 500km in running. I’m really excited and even though it isn’t really a lot compared to many runners, some weeks it has been a battle to get my 25km in that I needed. This past week was one of them. I had started out withContinue reading “Getting Close”
Stepping It Up With FitBit
Today I jumped on the FitBit band wagon. Only I won’t actually be on the wagon because that won’t up my step count 🙂 This is either going to be a real good thing for me or a bad one. This could be the push and the motivator for me to get back on track.Continue reading “Stepping It Up With FitBit”
Running Progress
In early November I set a new goal to hit 500km in running before the end of the year. That meant that I have to run 25km per week to get there. In the beginning I was doing very well, lately I seem to be making it to the end of the week and having toContinue reading “Running Progress”
Long Weekend Get Away
Today we arrived home from a great long weekend away. We went to visit our good friends in New Brunswick. It’s always nice to get to see them and their family. It’s also nice to get away from the every day routine for a while as well. Also I may have been spoiled as theyContinue reading “Long Weekend Get Away”
New Running Goal
It was in mid July when I guess I started running again this year after taking a long detrimental break. After the 10K race for the Valley Harvest Marathon in October of last year I basically stopped running. Getting started again was hard but it’s come along well. This year after the race I decidedContinue reading “New Running Goal”
