    Running Out East!

    SHARE

    Ok, so I am out east doing some training for my work and I figured it would be great to share with you how my runs are going in a new city.  I have never been to Halifax or Moncton before so I was really looking forward to getting out and running places that I have never been before!  After all it can get pretty tedious running the same routes all the time and being able to switch it up is great!   Or should I say would have been great!

    I arrived on Tuesday night in a wind storm that made the landing a little tense!  And when I woke up Wednesday it was raining. I know I know, ‘what’s a little rain? Get out and run!’  Hey I’ve said before I don’t mind running in the rain, but this was a downpour that lasted all day long! So I ventured to the ‘fitness room’ at the hotel and jumped on the treadmill, something I hadn’t done in almost a year.  To make a long boring story short, this is what I think of the treadmill.

    R eally Boring

    E vey step is one closer to nowhere AND being done!

    A lternative to getting soaked or freezing your butt off!

    D o people really prefer these things?

    M ath, treadmills are in miles us Canadians like Kilometres eh!

    I ‘d rather be watching paint dry, oh wait I could do that while running on this!

    L azy dogs owners would love one of these.

    L ook at me I’m going nowhere!!

     

    Can you tell I don’t like running on a treadmill???  Oh well it serves it purpose and hey it beats getting blown off the road and soaked to the bone!

    A banker by day, 35-year-old Tyler recently decided to train for a marathon. And by "decided," he means that "my wife has given me permission to train for the full." A dedicated family man with two young children (a three-year-old and a six-month-old), Tyler says it's a constant challenge to find more time to run. He says that his wife wants him to run because it's good for his heart, but he's slightly suspicious that the real reason might be because his body "was beginning to look more and more like a pear," and "she doesn't like pears." We wish him the best of luck in becoming the fruit of his wife's dreams!
