Keith's Odyssey to Planet Fitness: Which Speedo? The poutine, burger, bridge run
http://keithsodyssey.blogspot.com/2015/08/which-speedo-poutine-burger-bridge-run.html
Ironman Canada - DONE! Saturday, August 8, 2015. The poutine, burger, bridge run. So here we go. You wouldn't believe the pressure from my readers! I finally gave in and bought a Speedo. But which one? Let me know what you think. Or to horrify every reader, maybe both? We've been wanting to do this run for a while. During the winter we ran as far as Sandy Beach, and had to turn around. Now we kept going. Here's some photos of the bridges and the area around them. I can see the attraction of living there,...

Keith's Odyssey to Planet Fitness: The bike ride of my dreams
http://keithsodyssey.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-bike-ride-of-my-dreams.html
Ironman Canada - DONE! Sunday, August 2, 2015. The bike ride of my dreams. Some days are just perfect! This was one of them. I'd still been feeling a bit creaky but when offered the chance to have company on a bike ride, my route, my pace, it was hard to say no. Especially since it's so nice out. Almost all the pavement was much better than expected, even at my top speed of 72 kph. I think Michelle hit 65 (67! And eating a banana at 60 kph after dealing with cows on the road. In case you haven't noticed,...

Keith's Odyssey to Planet Fitness: August 2015
http://keithsodyssey.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Ironman Canada - DONE! Monday, August 31, 2015. Fish Creek view path. I wasn't sure about the whole darned thing today, starting with the alarm clock. Normally I'm on it before it goes off, but not today. It took a long time to get started. So I dodged down the garden path. Part of the neighbourhood has a central walkway with lots of grassy space. Today it was fresh mown. Quiet. A few people puttering in their back yard as I ran past. Some of the path is paved, some is red shale. There's a bit of up ...

Keith's Odyssey to Planet Fitness: RunKeeper compared to Runmeter
http://keithsodyssey.blogspot.com/2014/02/runkeeper-compared-to-runmeter.html
Ironman Canada - DONE! Saturday, February 8, 2014. RunKeeper compared to Runmeter. Still no buzz. Maybe later today or tomorrow. Later on 2 guys joined me. They noted I was the only person in the whole pool circle swimming correctly, and didn't want to fuss. We all had a good time and no problem sharing the lane. I certainly prefer the RunKeeper map. The Runmeter one is more oriented to east west runs, and guess what, most of mine are north south, like this one. Yes, you can blow up the Runmeter ...The e...

Keith's Odyssey to Planet Fitness: Retractable
http://keithsodyssey.blogspot.com/2013/02/retractable.html
Ironman Canada - DONE! Tuesday, February 5, 2013. But people are retractable too, when you think about it. Sometimes a person is open and outgoing, other times withdrawn and secluded. I know from experience that the transition can happen quickly. It can take as little as being interrupted in a presentation after you've been asked to start, by the person that asked you to start, who then proceeds to take over the presentation. (I'm looking at YOU, Lucy). In other news, my legs are feeling better after the...

Sometimes with a little swimming and biking thrown in. 1406 & 70.3 Race Results. Favorite Hikes in Alberta. Weekend In Review 07.20.2015. July 20, 2015. Well my friends…somehow or other we have made it to race week! The Calgary Ironman 70.3. Is this Sunday. Let’s recap the last two big weeks of training, shall we? I seem to have some bad luck on my final longest training rides these days. Last year I got a flat tire. Luckily the techs at Bow Cycle. On Saturday my coach gave me a fun little workout…...

Keith's Odyssey to Planet Fitness: The brain dead week
http://keithsodyssey.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-brain-dead-week.html
Ironman Canada - DONE! Friday, August 7, 2015. The brain dead week. Some might blame watching the political debates, but I was kind of dragging it from the beginning of the week. After a 4 day weekend I was just beginning to get used to it. It's the weekend again, and the top of my list is, (sigh) business tax stuff. It's one of those things that you just have to dig in and it's not so bad. But if you go back a year, you'll remember me saying much the same thing, and meaning to set up a system to...There...

Keith's Odyssey to Planet Fitness: Fed election 2015, essay 2
http://keithsodyssey.blogspot.com/2015/08/fed-election-2015-essay-2.html
Ironman Canada - DONE! Thursday, August 6, 2015. Fed election 2015, essay 2. Tonight was the leaders debate. Yes I watched. Harper has no choice but to continue the spin he has put on things. Nice of him to admit we are in a recession now. He's been doing this for a long time now, and he's good at his image. He certainly wasn't going to show that any punches landed. He knows his talking points and he's prepared to repeat them till he's blue in the face. Trudeau needed to do well in this debate to get bac...
