    I'm from Toronto!
    How's the social distancing coming along?

    I'm not even sure how to respond. I didnt believe all the comments regarding grocery stores, costco, etc but what I saw Friday evening was complete chaos.

    I'm in the GTA! Keep it up! Home workouts and running are my new thing. Keep tracking,

    I couldn't even get close to grocery stores on Friday morning. Friday afternoon I was able to make it in but there wasn't much. Saturday morning I hit the jackpot. Now we live off my normal stockpile of meat in the freezer

    Hey! Good for you! I on the other hand cant get motivated to workout at home. And now with both kids stuck at home for march break and two weeks after, this shall be interesting.

    Keeping running!

    Sunday morning my local Longo's was pretty empty at the meat section. No eggs. *kitten* chips were gone too (I guess that would be a good thing, one less crappy food for me to buy) . I hope stores are able to replenish.

    I heard some Sobeys will open an hour earlier for the elderly community to shop on peace without huge line ups and unnecessary stress. That somewhat restores my faith in humanity.

    If you go at about 10am it seems you hit the stores just as they have restocked shelves...I was finally able to get a giant bag of flour. I think I'm now set and don't need to go anymore. I even braved Eglinton to go to the beer store

    I'm down the road in London. I love home work outs. My cardio will take a bit of a hit but oh well.

    if you order online, they stock shelves and pick the orders in the morning, you may have some luck.
