Walking a 5K on the Pacific ocean

Apr 14, 2023 Sports And Fitness

Hello! Today I was all over the place – literally. We woke up somewhere on the Pacific Ocean, I walked a 5K on the deck of a ship then went to Canada. Ha! So much packed into one day. I love it. Princess Cruises and the On Deck for the cure foundation coordinate a 5K walk on most of their cruises to raise money for the Susan G. Komen for the cure Foundation.

First let’s start with  my run and eat for the day. I hit the treadmill for about 8 miles. I am not a substantial fan of the treadmill, but had to make it work. So, I downloaded the Serial podcasts and have been listening to those. HELLO. I am obsessed with the series so it’s perfect. I look forward to my run or walk so much because then I get to listen.

Breakfast has been so amazing. I love oatmeal made in big quantities for some reason? like every time I’m on vacation and eat at a buffet with oatmeal I think it’s so good. Plus, I get all crazy with the toppings. other breakfast foods to note: the  omelets, hash browns, fruit and smoothies. I love all of it.

Gotta carb load for my 5K walk…

You can sign up right on the ship at any  point in the cruise (before the walk starts). It is a $15.00 donation to participate. and you get a baseball cap.

I mentioned yesterday 2.5 laps around Deck 7 equals 1 mile. So the 5K is about 8 laps around Deck 7. This cruise’s 5k walk was super informal and small. I’ve heard up to 100 people have participated on one cruise before. this time there was only about a dozen of us.

My mom and I were a little late because my spa treatment went longer than expected. When we started it looked like some people had already done a lap or two. No worries – everyone was counting their own laps and going at their own pace. I saw two people running, but everyone else was walking. I walked. I don’t run after 10am

Dan was one of the runners. He actually got 1st place! They didn’t really give out places or prizes. It’s a non-competitive walk. but I declared him the winner and he accepted my as the official results.

After the walk I did some major damage at the buffet. I am obsessed with enormous salads (and desserts).

After the walk my mom and I finally Camiseta FC Utrecht had some downtime to just relax and enjoy the views. This whole trip has been strawberry jam packed with excursions and delicious meals and activities!! I’ve loved every minute, but haven’t had the chance to just be lazy.

The group of bloggers on this trip had one last hurrah before we headed to Canada. We met up for happy hour. and it was extra happy with this drink of the day = El Mejor Margarita (the best margarita).

 

Then, it was time for our final stop of the cruise. We went to Victoria, British Columbia. I don’t think I’ve ever been to Canada before so I was excited!

This was actually a super late arrival. We docked at 7pm and didn’t need to be back until 11:30pm. So, my mom and I decided to explore Victoria on foot. There are shuttles you can take into town, but it really wasn’t far. (I think a lot of the passengers of an Alaska cruise are an older demographic so they Camiseta Club Tijuana offer easy ways to get from one place to another. You don’t really need shuttle or taxi if you’re okay with walking a few miles total on this stop.)

Finally it was time to head back to the Ruby Princess and eventually back to the real world. Tomorrow I wake up in Seattle and go home.

Question: have you ever been to Canada eh?
