The Running Jackal

This channel is a collection of voice recordings that capture little slices of my life here in Victoria. Most often, I’m out on the running trails, sharing the sounds and stories I encounter along the way, but sometimes the recordings wander into other moments too. Each episode is usually trimmed down from longer sessions, keeping things focused and under an hour so it’s easy to listen to. I like to think of it as a mix of running journal, local atmosphere, and personal reflection. I hope you enjoy

Summit Run

The Running Jackal ·

2024/09/29

I run through the forest, the sun flickering through the trees as my feet crunch along the trail. Passing a small cave, I pause briefly, tempted to explore, but I push on. The path gets rougher, full of rocks and roots, but I love the challenge of navigating it. I leap over stones, focusing on each step, knowing the climb will be worth it. With the trees thickening around me, I feel the quiet and push forward, eager for the view ahead.

The ‘Almost Glorious’ Episode.Good morning! Carlos here, out on my usual run from Elford Street to work. Today, I’m running without my earbuds, so I have to keep an eye on my heart rate over the noise of the traffic. I promised to give a shout-out to Yvette, someone I know from the 'Bird in Hand' half marathon, and the Extra Mile podcast. Running through Victoria, I’m soaking in the sights and sounds, even though the morning is chilly. As I cross the Johnston Street Bridge, I’m reminded of how

The Plan B Show

2024/09/14

For a plan B show, this one turned out good. I managed to hear it already, as a pre release audit.Today, I’m walking to work because of the rain, and I’m avoiding getting my bikes wet. As I make my way through the streets, I take a few photographs for my blog and comment on the changing cityscape. I’ll finish this recording as I reach Johnson Street Bridge and then switch to filming a short video clip.

Les the Bike Man

The Running Jackal ·

2024/09/09

I met Les, a bike mechanic, today on Slugget Road to fix my front derailleur. He explained that the cable and end stops needed adjusting, and showed me how dust accumulation had caused the shifter mechanism to stick. As he worked, he shared stories of cycling daily after retirement and fixing his own bikes as a kid. I mentioned my past in ultra-marathon running and my need for cross-training, and he advised me to listen to my joints. By the end, my bike was shifting smoothly, and I felt ready to

Shout out for the Bird in Hand

The Running Jackal ·

2024/09/04

I'm off to work on my pushbike, recording a show that includes a submission from my friend JD in South Central PA, where it's unusually chilly. JD talks about his walk and the upcoming Burden Hand Half Marathon. As I ride, I notice my regular bike picks up speed faster than my E-bike and is quieter. My goal is to burn 300 calories on a 12-kilometer route. I've set up my recording gear to capture clean audio despite the wind and traffic.

Running Errands

The Running Jackal ·

2024/08/22

Good morning, everyone. I tried recording earlier, but I had issues with my earbuds, causing the sound to be unclear. Today, I'm running errands, including renewing my library card, which I hope I brought with me. During the run, I noticed I'm missing audio feedback from Samantha due to a tech glitch, so I'll be running by feel. As I approach the library, I'll end this episode and call it "Running Errands"—again.

Meadowlands on the Mountain

During a 5-mile run on the Mountain of Joy, I encountered several hikers and dogs, which made the trail feel more social than usual. I reflected on my past ultra-marathon experiences, discussing the psychological and physiological benefits of starting races at a slower pace. I also shared tips on managing energy levels during long runs and the importance of pacing. Despite a slower-than-usual pace, I enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and took a few photographs along the way. The run ended with a

Irvine all the way up!!!

The Running Jackal ·

2024/08/08

Good morning, everyone. I'm running on Mt. Doug today, heading up Irvine Trail, trying to stay in Zone 2 for this workout. I lost my favorite sunglasses last week, likely during a bike ride before my trip to Toronto, and I didn’t bring any water, so today’s run will be less than an hour. As I reach the steep parts of the trail, I’m taking some photos and listening to Cajun blues by Pappy Biondo. I'll sign off now as I near the summit—thanks for joining me on this run.

The trail I'm on is Douglas Creek Trail, one of my favorites, and it's currently 6:44 AM on a quiet Friday morning. Later today, I plan to visit my son to deliver his Walmart order and then continue my hike up to Sea Crest Road.

During our run together in Sidney, BC, Derick and I realized we had some dead batteries and joked about how just wiggling them around made them work again. We chatted about various topics, including Derick's upcoming interview at McDonald's and reminiscing about past running advice, like walking the first kilometer to warm up. We discussed how modifying one's diet and increasing activity could improve health. As we passed familiar spots and people, we shared memories of past encounters and talked
