I've been looking at condos in Calgary and came across the Niklas Group.
I wandered their website and came across some townhomes. I absolutely love this one:
http://www.niklasgroup.com/projects/homes/main25/gallery99.htm
click the spec sheet to see the layout of the 3 floors.
2700 sq feet,
on the entrance level I'd set up my bike+trainer and maybe get an endless pool to go with my treadmill for speed sets.
The kitchen looks gigantic! with tons of counter space, lots of cabinets and the island with double sink is perfect.
The ensuite 'spa' looks like it's lit naturally and a patio as big as the master bedroom.
I wonder how much it is........

Break Time
After the Victoria Marathon I did NOTHING for 3 weeks. The most I did was a 25 minute stationary bike ride and 5 mins on the tready.
Last week I ran about 8km with Jane, and then 10km fundraiser for Doctors without borders. I tried pacing a co-worker for 52mins but we were 3 minutes slow thanks to the cold (both temperature and sickness).
In the 3 weeks, I spent 2 of them at work. It was nice to catch up on sleep instead of running till 10pm after work.
I spent my week at home cooking. In elementary I remember watching Cin Bons being made at Cinnabon at Market Mall. The next day i tried to make them myself. They turned out okay, probably a little overbaked cuz i was scared of eating raw dough.
Point being, I've always liked to cook and eat!
Something about Vancouver inspired me to get back into cooking. It might have been walking through Granville island seeing all the fresh ingredients, or maybe it was watching the Barista Competition and seeing how TECHNICAL it was. It inspired me to reach for perfection.
That week I made my own chicken stock, Scallop and pea risotto, Thai Chicken, I rolled my own pasta and made ricotta/spinach ravioli, Duck breast salad, Seared Ahi Tuna.
Work has been great too. It's been below 0 Celcius for a few weeks now. My schedule is finally set (I was switched to the opposite shift) so it's been easier to get on a roll. I always know when I'm 5 days into a shift because that's when my left eye starts twitching.
Last interesting fact..I randomnly popped onto a dating site (no i didn't sign up), and it threw out the stat that 43% of people will GOOGLE their new date!
If you google "Allan Tam" you get:
-some other allan tam's facebook
-wikipedia site with alan tam, the old, but famous hong kong singer,movie star.
-allanmtam twitter, that one's mine
If you google "Allan Tam Calgary" then all the hits on the first page are mine:
-5 sites to do with race results
-2 sites with comments that I've made on other ppl's sites
-2 are from this blog.
Cool
