The Calgary Grey Cup Committee was serving pancake breakfasts to a long but brisk line-up. I was actually watching High Steppin Daddy sing some country music up on stage when an organizer thought I was waiting in line. So I found myself receiving some pancake and sausage after only a 2-minute shuffle.
I then signed up for the Canadian Forces obstacle course. The flak jacket and helmet added extra weight and stiffness to the challenge. Sadly, over the 30 minutes that I hung around that festivity, I was the only who tripped and fell on the tires. On the other hand, I was one of the few who were able to quickly finish my push-ups and chin-ups. No women could do the chin-ups without assistance, and many of the men struggled too. But it was probably my slight size and weight, which required much less strength, than any boot-camp fitness on my part.
Since that insubstantial breakfast wasn't enough, I headed over to Coconut Grove Roti for an outstanding Dal Puri roti and came home loaded with various tchotchke.
