You have any preference / style / brand of choice when it comes to running shoes?
Good job on going on that run! Keep it up!
Today's stats:
- 50 push ups
- 12km run at average pace of 5:53/km (on pace to catch johnny guy this week, provided that he doesn't go super saiyan).
- cold shower
- 22485 steps
Good that you figured out what was wrong with the ankle. Best to heal it properly before stressing it again.
I brought my cousin hiking this morning. He's from Toronto and is visiting BC for the third time in two years. He usually stays at my house when he visits and he asked me to bring him hiking. Because his flight was also at today afternoon, and because he said he wanted to do something challenging, I brought him to the Grouse Grind #599888. Guy was in better shape than I thought. I expected him to take 90 minutes to finish the hike, but he did it in 63 minutes. Saved me some time and allowed me to get back to work earlier.
Today's stats:
- 50 push ups
- 2.5km hike with approx 800m elevation gain
- 1km run at average pace of 6:06/km (I couldn't resist gaining on johnny guy on his rest day, even though it was just 1km.)
- skipped cold shower
- 13838 steps

I don't remember exactly, but I think I finished it in about two weeks. It's not that giant, just relatively big, big enough to last two weeks. I couldn't resist my sugar addiction and bough a medium sized chunk of tiramisu. I've been working on that and need to finish it before I go on my trip in a few days.

I agree. Having functional knees at retirement is very important.

I think I might be going too hard. Going 11km after a full day of work, the day after a 25km, made my legs quite tired and my pace quite slow. I'm bringing my cousin hiking in an hour or so too. Then back to work after the hike. Maybe I'll just rest and not run tonight.
I'm within 10 miles behind johnny guy though. 8.7 to be exact. Hopefully I will pass him and claim the top spot sometime this week.
Wish you a speedy recovery on the ankle.
I took a very long nap after work, and it felt great.

I'm going after johnny. 10 miles to go to catch up.
I'm already at 130km ran this month. Been running a lot more ever since I joined Hustle's challenge/competition thing.
Nice, you went swimming.

I'm too used to dark mode everything, my eyes can no longer handle light mode. They simply go blind.
Yep. Only once though at mount Seymour. I wrote about it here. #438583
This is the picture of said bear.

I ran into people who claimed to have saw bears further ahead down the trail 5 or more times, but we never end up seeing the bear.

Cryptographically signed fake rabbit.
It looks like you changed to a table format when reporting your day.
I haven't been posting the past few days because I was busy putting together and setting up my new PC. Been running more than usual though, because I'm trying to climb the leaderboard of the Runstr League. But this johnny9 guy is impossible to catch... Whoever he is.

Nice. Some rain in the summer is great. It's all sunshine in the forecast for us.
It's been hot here too. It's pretty taxing to do manual labor work under the heat. Luckily, I work indoors, so at least I'm not directly under the sun all day. And thankfully there is AC at home to escape the heat once I get off work. Also, it cools down quite a bit after the sun sets, so I've been going on my runs later at night, usually between 9pm-10pm.
