For those of you who are as old as me and remember Gowan here are some snippets from last night's show in Burlington. For 69 he is still dancing around that stage in his kilt pretty damn well!

Never get tired of this walk along the water though it was a cold one today. It's been years since I've seen this much build up of ice along the water

Success! I have been working on a pull up challenge program for the last 2 weeks. The first video was December 20 before I started the program. 0 pull ups. Fast forward to today, January 8, and I managed to do 2 and a bit pull ups. It was a struggle bus but the first one felt pretty good. Thank you to Angela Gargano and her 2 week Jumpstart program that got me there. I want to keep going! Next goal is 5 pull ups!

As part of the program you do a strength test at the beginning and at the end. Here was my progress in just 19 days:

Max pull ups from 0 to 2.5
Max assisted pull ups from 6 to 11
Max Hang from 40 seconds to 60 seconds
Max V-ins in a minute from 40 to 51
Max push in a minute from 21 to 32
Max Glute bridge from a mat in a minute from 30 to 35
Max plank hold from 2 minutes to 2:37
Mile run from 12:33 to 11:10

Feeling stronger! The program taught me how to activate my lats and the proper form to get that first pull up. Still lots to learn. Looking at the video I can see that my shoulders are shrugged up pretty high. I need to work on keeping them down.

Santa and I are stoked about our first 40 minute 5 km run with the new titanium hips! Now doing 1:20 run and 40 second walk. Could not pass up this amazing weather for a run. 8 Celsius on Dec 18!

We had to wait a bit longer for this show as the lead singer, Nanna Bryndis, lost her voice for the originally scheduled show. They told us to keep our tickets and they would be back. They were true to their word and what an amazing show last night!

Sharing a few snippets "Of Monsters and Men" at History.

What a show! A year later then scheduled but well worth the wait to hear Sarah McLachlan's Fumbling Towards Ecstasy 30th Anniversary tour.

This is November in Bronte. A balmy 12 C and sunny. 10,000 steps of bliss. Got home and found a bee on our flowers in the front yard. I know the snow is coming so taking in every moment of this gorgeous day. 🍂🍁

Opening night at TIFF. We saw Saipan which is an Irish movie about the stand off between the captain of Ireland's national soccer team, Rory Keane (played by Eanna Hardwicke) and the manager Mick McCarthy (played by Steve Coogan) leading up to the World Cup finals in 2002. This was not a story I was familiar with nor am I a big soccer fan but really enjoyed the movie. A comedy and a drama. I guess you would call it a dramedy. 2 thumbs up from Douglas Grittani and me! Highly recommend going to see it when it hits theatres or go get yourself a ticket to TIFF as it's playing again tomorrow! Also bonus, we bumped into Eanna, the lead, on our way out of the theatre and he graciously agreed to a selfie!
