Strongman Saturday
It's Saturday, but not just any Saturday, it's Saturday during the Calgary Stampede. That means free breakfasts, endless partying, and blasting country music.
Rather than get blasted, as I would love to do but know better, I opted for a tamer Saturday of lifting weights and eating meat.
On the way to the gym I hit a Stampede breakfast for some much needed pre-game calories. For those of you that don't know, during the Stampede companies and organizations host breakfasts that are completely free to anyone who wants to attend. It is a really cool tradition in this town.
