Senior's Games



Coming in second in the 100 m race.

 The rest of the week Leo participated in track and field in the BC Senior's Games (now officially called the 55+ Games).

Meanwhile I was able to paddle with Dorothea's outrigger canoe team again.


The tides were favorable so we were able to paddle down to the Inner Harbour this trip.

Leo was very happy to be competing again after two years off with a knee injury and the pandemic.

The North Central Team was too small to field any relay teams this year so Leo teamed up with other zones.

Here he is debriefing with his teammates in the mixed 4x100m relay,

Running with Vancouver Island North

The 4x400 relay,

An impromptu team put together to race against the 75+ age group team trying to break a world record

And the men's power walking relay.

With Zone 11 - Bulkley Valley  Lakes Nechako

We gave two members of the Williams Lake carpet bowling team a ride to  Victoria, so went to their venue and watched them in action.  Here they are beating the team from Kitimat, my hometown (I did not know any of them).

Chris and Alice in the red vests.

We spotted a restaurant on the Inner Harbour while we were paddling, the Tug Eatery,

So one evening we checked it out. It has a large outdoor seating area on the waterfront, but we were too cold so we ate inside.

Afterwards we walked across the Johnson Street Bridge


Just as the sun was setting.
