Fall is my favourite season for trail running (and pretty much everything else). Unfortunately, the fallen leaves conceal a lot of tripping hazards. I did an impressive face plant this morning and had several near misses!

Unbelievably bad multiple calls against the #BlueJays from this umpiring crew in the 2nd. Like seriously bad.

Finished the 2025 multi-sport season with the Barrelman half-iron distance race in Welland/Niagara Falls. Couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day!

❝In a world that focuses so much on exercising as a task or even a means to an end (‘Stay hard!’ and ‘Discipline equals freedom!’), we often overlook what movement does for us spiritually and emotionally.

Last long #bike ride before my half-iron race in a couple of weeks. It was a chilly start but the sun and blue skies came through!

Jeff Hoffman just gave up back-to-back home runs in the 9th and the #BlueJays are down, 3-1.

This isn’t a stadium that really boos, but that’s the loudest boo of the season.

Why is Schneider so quick to pull his starters when the bullpen is so obviously bad?

So regressive & dystopian it feels like, um, The Handmaid’s Tale…👇

“…including literary classics such as author Margaret Atwood’s ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’”

#Marlins get that leadoff walk around with a stolen base, deep fly ball and clutch single by Javier Sanoja. Blown save Hoffman, his first since the meltdown in LA two weeks ago.

A bit grey and blustery today, but hard not to love a bike ride that took me to the shorelines of both Lake Huron and Georgian Bay. Because you can do that on the beautiful Bruce Peninsula.
