The Mrs had a training run today, and the pup n I tagged along. I brought the DSLR to improve my running backward and take pics while her coach set a goal for her run/walk intervals to maintain a specific heartbeat. The pup was using the outing as a recovery run for...

As the sun rose this morning, pup n I set out on a “hike’. I say hike because I wore a 30lb pack. It is the same pack I had when I moved back to Washington and decided hiking was fun. In it, I did not have the ten essentials; instead, I had two containers full of...

So tonight, I took the drone out to see how the active tracking modes work. There is a follow-me and a parallel flavor, but they did the same thing for me in my testing tonight. Granted, I have not used either of these modes much, but I have always thought that the...

Seems my posts, or the motivation to write, diminishes with the hours of the day. The pup n I started off great with nearly six miles under 13min/mile. But that was as the sun came up. Now, the Mrs, pup n I all went for a mile walk as the sun was setting. My ability...

Tonight the Mrs, pup n I went for a 1.26M walk after dinner. It was a slow walk while the girls watched the Elemental movie after dinner. Was surprised how interested they got because at first, they fought to put something else on. You know how those teens on the...

Well, today, I started out with high hopes to knock out five miles. No particular reason; just felt like a good number. Pup n I took off mid-day, the temp was about 69, I wore the New Balance shoes, bolted on the Garmin, and turned on the music through a set of...
