After a regular week of running, my first walk-as-exercise involved little running, but a wee bit here and there. Mostly I wanted to get out, get some fresh air, stretch my legs, and touch trees.
I did these things.
It was 27-28C, but not overly unpleasant. The walk to the lake and back still affords a lot of canopy/shade.
There were no dogs off-leash, which is weird! I don’t think I saw any on the river trail, which is also kind of weird for a Saturday.
Also weird: Apparently someone spotted a bobcat or lynx at Burnaby Lake (as I did back in 2017), as the cat sign has appeared at the lake. AFAIK, it only goes up when there is an actual sighting:
Overall, a fine outing. Now I can eat an entire chocolate cake as reward!
