25th Annual Terry Fox Run

Just got home from participating in the 25th Annual Terry Fox Run.

Was a nice day for a run, reason enough to get me out of bed earlier than the customary 10 or 11:00 wake-up call on Sundays.

The run itself was about 7.5km and there was a ton of people out walking, running, rollerblading, biking, etc. I went out super hard (3m20s through 1km, 7m through 2km) but managed to get things back under control. I was expecting a 10km run which is a bit beyond what I have been running so the 7 or 8km it turned out being was good. I’ve been trying to run consistent sub 4min pace and managed to do that today.

After the run, the local supermarket conglomerate was supplying free pancakes, sausages, oranges, banana’s and sunny d. I haven’t had sunny d in years but it was the only stuff around so I forced a couple glasses in.

Now the rest of the day will be spent relaxing and setting up my new Dell D610 laptop.
