Monday June 28, 2018 - Cycling

Weather is  perfect.  24 C .  Warm and sunny. Cycled out to the Military Base and had  a  look at the boats at their yacht club and spent sometime taking some sun beside  Lake..  (its on Lake Ontario).  Then  cycled home thru Fort Henry.   When I got  home - realized i had left my keys on the rocks where I had been enjoying  the sun and watch the boats. Cycled back out to the military College (RMC) and my keys were still on the rock where I had been enjoying the sun... I am now back home .  No run today.

Running And Me --- ( First post in a long time ) Please check back often..

It's time to  Run and train properly.  I have taken a hiatus and now its time to train.  Tried running in the late afternoon. Walked lots - but I did a  slow run towards the end of my run. 
I do ride my bike - as it is my number 1 means of getting around.  

I am committed to run in the fall (2018).  Its  up to me to get the training done. I would also like to run in England or in San Francisco. My training and event costs  are an issue here. 



  •  Check  my Blog often...

Saturday -- 7 April, 2018

 Trying to get back into run training.
 Need to focus on daily runs,  yoga, and strength training. 
 Daily Cycling and Swimming once a week. 
Need self discipline to get the runs and workouts done.

I would like to run 10k in Toronto, and a  5k in the fall.  Lots depends on how fit I can get and whether my body wants to go these distances. 

Ran today. Good. 

I am interested in running in the San Francisco 10K - that would have to be next spring.

Trying to write more

July 18 Tuesday
I have been running 4 or 5 times a week. Distance of each run is approx. 5km.

 Think one of my issues that has affected my running -  is not having any definite goals.
I have not much of anything over the past four months . I have put in some runs, which have helped me keep my fitness at decent level. Not sure what my goals are. Have been toying  with taking up sailing, drawback here is cost. Its expensive.  Also interested in cycling. Need a new bike. And I need a holiday.

Today I cycled to the Base ( kingston and RMC), stopped at TimHortons for a latte and a muffin and then cycled home. Followed the winding road thru the base and around the Royal Military College. Put in a good run around 5 pm. distance 5km. Happy.

Book on night table that I am reading is "CHRONICLES" - BOB DYLAN.  book is interesting.
Like some of his music. Own 4 of his Cds.
Played here in Kingston a few weeks ago. He put on a good show.

May 11 - Thursday

 The past few weeks have been difficult. I didn't feel up to snuff, when it came to running and getting things done. On a positive note - I got my taxes done on time. - Took the package to a tax office at local shopping center. Happy as they did not overcharge. 

And I celebrated my 69th birthday.  (May 10) Nice.

I have decided to forget the numbers and focus on living and doing what I want to do.
What are my goals?

Today, I put in a good run. - Happy about this. First run in a couple of weeks. 

I need to buy a new bike. Very stressed over this.  Looked at a good bike store here in town. I didn't like the bike the gal was big on. Not sure what I am going to do.  Think it over.  

And I would like to take a holiday or travel somewhere.

April 10

I am entered and planning to run in Montreal - on -  Saturday April 22. 
Distance 5K. Part of the Canada Run Series. 
Okay. 
I am running most days, and my goal is to stay healthy, run in Montreal and finish, and back home to Kingston.
 I have a cat (Tuffy), and will be leaving her for 2 days.  Keeping my fingers crossed that she will be okay. I am thinking of  having someone check on Tuffy.

 I am also hoping to run in the Toronto Waterfront  10K in late June. This will depend on how things go in Montreal and  on my run preparation and my fitness level.
