					<description><![CDATA[I somehow managed to fit in watching three movies this weekend and it started with a random pick off Netflix called Code 3, a Rainn Wilson tragi-comedy about ambulance drivers in Los Angeles. Also, it turned out to be a biting indictment of American-style health care, and a bit of an unexpected tear-jerker in the [&#8230;]]]></description>

Last year I had this idea of creating a video series to accompany this site, and I actually produced a couple early episodes, where I would have a sit around a campfire &#8212; maybe in my backyard, maybe in [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Sunday Runday, and I’m moving gingerly around the house this morning in recovery mode after a long, tough race yesterday. After a two and a half year wait, and two covid-postponments, the Blackfoot Ultra finally crossed the start line on Saturday. A good proportion of the racers never showed up, obviously fallen out of training [&#8230;]]]></description>

Too often I discount and downplay the value of lacing up for a cause that isn’t just another tick on the tally of my own personal achievements. Yet a five kilometer fundraiser race, as far removed as it is from the epic [&#8230;]]]></description>

I hadn’t run more than a dozen kilometers in the better part of a year, certainly not over the winter, and during [&#8230;]]]></description>

A few of the run crew have found themselves in an urgent training predicament. With the local restrictions lifting quickly and thoroughly, an ultramarathon that most figured [&#8230;]]]></description>

Except I didn&#8217;t, not really. I kicked off along the long curved edge of the park near my house and dodged and passed a familiar face walking her puppy on a [&#8230;]]]></description>

But training calls, and has little respect for blips in the calendar like global pandemics and provincial lockdowns and excuses about being stuck in one’s own backyard. Knowing a convincing distance run (by which I really mean [&#8230;]]]></description>
