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: 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 Sometimes a person is open and outgoing, other times withdrawn and secluded.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...

And to those of you buried under what, as of Monday evening, is supposed to be an epic snowfall, happy stay-the-hell-home day, am I right? Let me know if you want a postcard from SoCal.). I love writing, but when I read a lot, I love writing even more. Kinda cool how that works, huh? As promised, your monthly interweb finds:. A round-up of the most scenic national parks. 8220;Conservative ...

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...

Keith's Odyssey to Planet Fitness: The crowd was terrified, and left us alone
http://keithsodyssey.blogspot.com/2013/12/the-crowd-was-terrified-and-left-us.html
Ironman Canada - DONE! Sunday, December 15, 2013. The crowd was terrified, and left us alone. Let's see what order the photos show up in through magic of blogger imports. That's the order I'll write about, regardless of if it makes sense or not. I say BAH! This is from earlier in the week. Celina occasionally likes to hop up and butt into wherever Curtis is sleeping. He sometimes looks a bit cranky about it. While I'm on about it, my life has been bedeviled by small plastic tabs. A part broke off the...

Keith's Odyssey to Planet Fitness: The introduction to Borg life
http://keithsodyssey.blogspot.com/2013/09/the-introduction-to-borg-life.html
Ironman Canada - DONE! Thursday, September 5, 2013. The introduction to Borg life. So, a couple days with my new ear glasses. Feeling lost already? Meetings at work are much better, even in the horrible room with the really loud ventilation. I can actually hear people now. It makes me wonder what I've missed. Normally I don't have music on my phone; I keep the room for photos and stuff. I've been playing music into my ears at work for a while, but being wireless is awesome! In order to make the bluetooth...

Keith's Odyssey to Planet Fitness: Fed election 2015, essay 1
http://keithsodyssey.blogspot.com/2015/08/fed-election-2015-essay-1.html
Ironman Canada - DONE! Tuesday, August 4, 2015. Fed election 2015, essay 1. Since I'm almost positive I'll be doing more than one of these during the epic, tedious, propaganda stink bomb that Harper is pleased to call an election, I thought I'd better name them clearly. You are going to get the opinions of a real, ordinary, working Canadian, as opposed to the mythological entity Harper invokes at every opportunity. With recent commentary on the Alberta provincial election. Just so you know, Harper's name...

Keith's Odyssey to Planet Fitness: A tale of two naps
http://keithsodyssey.blogspot.com/2015/08/a-tale-of-two-naps.html
Ironman Canada - DONE! Monday, August 3, 2015. A tale of two naps. One thing I don't do enough of is take naps. The cats try. They can emit snoreons with the best of them, but we're often so busy we don't even notice. Or we do notice but power through as best we can. But yesterday after the bike ride I cuddled up with Curtis and we had a lovely nap during the heat of the day. Today I was up early for a swim. It's a good thing I set my alarm clock! Well, they do. Puttered a bit, then succumbed to the cat ...
