Well, this entry is being posted on day 30, but I thought I’d still share with you day 29…. because it was that adventurous! Valentine’s Day will take on a whole new meaning for me for wondering where the love is!! We took our generator in Monday morning to see if we could get it […]
Brrr… it’s cold. Soon, I will tuck myself away in my sleeping bag, rated -11, blankets on top. Propane is low – again. A decision will be made soon as to how cold we sleep throughout the night. Normally I sleep with my window open in the winter – I hate my head being […]
I think I’m tired… and grumpy! I woke up this morning after another mediocre sleep and could see my breath in the cold air surrounding my bed. Putting my running clothes on was not fun… it’s just one notch of comfort away from putting damp clothes on. The cold permeates my body in the RV. […]
Let me tell you a little bit about Sarah Powell… aka – SP. If you don’t feel like you’ve seen many pictures of her or know much about her, it’s because she prefers it that way! The picture above pretty much sums it up! She prefers to be in the background… anonymity suits her […]
Today, I ran my first marathon distance for the TMO Project. I don’t want to bore anyone with too much running talk, but today is significant to me for a couple of reasons. My training over the past year had been twofold – to increase my distance and to be able to run that distance […]
Today’s visit with Millcrest Academy in Grand Falls – Windsor was fun! 329 students from grades 4-6 filled the gymnasium and seemed engaged in our message of getting outside. It was interesting to hear the gasps when I told them the number of hours that most youth spend in front of screens in a […]
We’re in Grand Falls-Windsor on a Tuesday night and again, the snow has found us! The 15 cm that was expected a couple of days ago turned into a foot and a half. The snow banks in town are over my head! And tonight, the snow falls again – locals say another 10-15, but they […]
My dad grew up in Hamilton and was the oldest of 3 brothers. He was active and played football… ended up playing for the farm team of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats for a brief stint until an injury led him down another path in life. So I suppose some of my athletic genes can be attributed […]
I HAD SO MUCH FUN TODAY!! I started running this morning, and my legs felt completely back to normal (relatively speaking for trying to run 7300 km) and I was able to get in about 15 km before the snow started coming. I’m not sure if it’s always like this in Newfoundland, but it doesn’t […]
On this beautiful Saturday morning, I was able to get back on the TCH and get in some miles… and in the video blog today, a long overdue and oft requested featurette tour of the RV – a 1984 Chevy Citation – home for the next 8 months!
