Local hike

I’ll be honest, the Grouse Grind got to be a grind. So intense, so full-on, basically it was an hour of a intense step machine with trees.

So, bearing in mind that I still need to train and get in shape, I decided to vary the training style somewhat and go for nice long rambling walks with a spin class and some step machines thrown in. Hopefully that’ll be enough.

My buddy Shaker and I drove this morning to the neighbouring Pacific Spirit Regional Park and did an 8.5km “hike” (pretty much flat).

Not a great challenge, but beautiful ‘foresty’ and I got a bit of a sweat going and that’s going to have to be good enough.

If I fall over and collapse while on this big wall, we’ll all know why.  Still, so long as there’s just one person behind me on this thing, I’ll be OK.
