Mt Gardner. Beautiful day to explore Mt Gardner on Bowen Island with Oscar, Marco, Anna, and Ian! We decided to take the car on the ferry to avoid the 3km walk to the trail head, which saved some time. Checked out the chocolatier and distillery on the way back. Lovely hiking weather :) Time is moving time.

I decided I should slowly start running again for summer orienteering activities. I haven’t gone on a run since last January... in an attempt to avoid my pesky posterior tibialis issues I’ve had in the past, I've decided to do a slow walk/run progression.

5 minute warm up walk, 8 x 1 minute run and 2 minute walk, plus a cool down walk to get back home.

Sprinkler goes off on 7th floor > very wet elevators > lots of sitars. At least we were prepared with our stairwell key this time so could get back on our floor. Last time it took them about 5 days to get one of the elevators back working and then another 3 months to get the second one working. We had just gotten to the point where the elevators were functioning pretty normally. Apparently they don't like being flooded with water. I suppose one benefit of being on the 23rd floor is that you are less likely to get flooded, but you also have to climb.

Powerfit class at Elite Performance. Good class. I do quite like this gym, but it's pretty pricey outside of Classpass.

Spin class at Cyklus. Becca, Marco, Oscar, and Kate H all came, which was fun. The class was pretty busy. This seemed pretty tough today, especially the two long intervals. The instructor heads to California for the winter, so I have a suspicion she's making them extra tough before she goes.
