To the Meadows and back

Hello everyone—today I’m taking you on a hike instead of a run, aiming for about 90 minutes of activity. I’ve got my camera, voice recorder, and the metronome ticking away, though that click may make the audio unusable. Crossing the Hiker’s Bridge, I passed people enjoying Douglas Creek. I stopped for water, admired the trees I think of as friends, and recorded some trailer footage while moving toward the meadows. The traffic and clothing rustle made the audio tricky, but I pressed on past the outdoor schoolroom, then climbed toward Arbutus Mount, noting helicopters overhead. The trails were beautiful, rocky, and quiet, and I filmed again for the video audience. Today’s episode will likely be called ‘To the Meadows and Back’. Wrapping up, I stowed my earbuds, and continued the hike—still recording,.. still The Running Jackal..
