Fitness continues from Manila to Surrey, British Columbia. Back home in the Philippines, I used to do a lot of fitness exercises on the streets of BGC on a cool morning and even on warm summer days.
How could I step out for an outdoor walk on a rainy week in British Columbia? Yes, it rains a lot in BC, but the weather seems favorable. I expect a sunny day perfect for an afternoon stroll in the neighborhood.
Fitness goals could be challenging when stuck at home on gloomy and rainy winter days, but I must enjoy the outdoors whenever I wake up with sunlight.
It's cold outside even when it's sunny, with a daytime high of 10 degrees. However, winter is about to end, and the best of spring is coming on March 20th.
Walking on the residential streets of Fleetwood on a cold afternoon is an excellent activity as I aim to become more physically fit. I don't sweat, but it makes me feel warm in less than an hour. That's already about half of my 6,000 daily steps target. It feels good to get moving and see the beautiful neighborhood around me.
We travel to places occasionally and try different global cuisines that suit our palates. Metro Vancouver has diverse food choices, and we couldn't resist the best Asian cuisine. However, this could challenge my fitness goals as I increase my caloric intake, resulting in weight gain.
That's why I need to burn calories and unwanted fats. I need to walk, run, climb, and jump up high. I'm glad to start my fitness journey here in Fleetwood by simply taking a stroll. Having a long walk in a day makes me feel energized and revitalized.
In the coming days and weeks, I'll be able to discover more places in Fleetwood where I can fully achieve my fitness goals. The quietness of the site and the simplicity of living is ideal for a healthy mind and body. This is where I have always wanted to be. And here I am, about to live my most extraordinary life.
