Happy Weekend!


DYN-O-MITE!


I'll be running with a few friends from downtown up to Grouse Mountain and then doing the Grind after. Can't wait! Join us! 8am meet at Georgia and Denman. We'll do a nice slow pace up to Grouse Mountain. Take a break at Starbucks. Meet some more people at the base of the Grind at 10am and head up the Grind.

Shit my husband says: Grouse Grind

After finishing the Grouse Grind, husband says,
"Now my co-worker can't bug me about not going to the gym!"
 "Oh? You went to the gym? You did 3 reps of some weights?"
"Oh, that's quaint."
"I just walked up a mountain!"

I think he was pretty happy with his accomplishment. From Couch to Cliff.

Things I see on my running journeys: My first trail run

Apres my first trail run
I gotta thank Linda for taking me on my first trail run at Pacific Spirit Park. I loved the smell of the sweet, earthy air and the soft and often muddy trails. What a great run! Thanks Linda!
