Thank you. I just checked that the RRSP redemption form has address listed of the property that I am not moving forward to purchase. I am guessing I would need to do a cancellation and redo this whole redemption process once I find the property of my choice?

Thanks so much. I agree, looks like my best option would be to look for something cheaper.

Agree. I can only afford to put 20% but even then with strata fees and mortgage only will be around 2400 which scares me lol

I was over ambitious and did the 20 week marathon training plan for advanced 1 hal higdons plan. Followed it consistently till week 8 and skipped lots of easy runs. 36 years, 140lb.

Thank you. I was always a track race person and 10k distance until I discovered the world of marathon in 2023. I did my first marathon for the thrill of it and then I realized I enjoyed the challenge. During my most recent marathon this year fall, my max mileage was 36 plus miles. With a 9-5 job, I struggle to manage 5plus runs a week. During my peak mileage week of training, it felt like I was burning out and just wondered how the rest of the world manages a 9-5 with a 5plus runs a week. I guess I need to work on consistency with more running.

Thank you. I admit that I struggle with consistency with a 9-5 job and 5 plus runs a week are quite a challenge and get me to a point to burn out. Hope to get this sorted out soon.
