Bike (trainer) 40:00 [3]
shoes: Fuji Team
Easy trainer ride. Nothing special.
Took daughter to a b-day party today @ Dream Play Recreation and spent a ton of time bouncing up and down on the awesome trampolines. SO FUN! And surprisingly physical. Tempting to log!

Run (trail) 1:29:16 [4] 7.54 mi (11:50 / mi) +1749ft 9:42 / mi
shoes: Hoka One One Stinson EVO
Pere Marquette...
Low points: very annoying and long drive. Nearly 1 hour just on my little 6 mi. stretch of (completely unplowed w/ 8" snow) Hwy. D! Almost 3.5 hours total! Couldn't believe it. Kept thinking over and over "I have better things to do w/ my time" but tried to focus on just getting there. Jumped out of the car, ran up to the lodge to ask if I could still run (no prob.), grabbed my #, and was on the trail w/ in minutes (after nice chat and hug from Kate). Didn't bother to warm up. Legs stiff!
High points: great trail run! Wasn't really taking it seriously as a "race" so thoroughly enjoyed watching all the finishers coming down the last hill as I was going up. Yay!! Go SLOCers!!! Trail was super slick after being packed down by so many feet but I had no issues due to SuperShoes. Loved the quiet snowy woods.
Actually ended up w/ an official time, but I estimate 1:25-1:26-ish running time due to chat at the start (oops-on the clock!), several stops on first hill to let finishers pass unencumbered, and helping a lady w/ slippery shoes up the steps. Certainly not speedy, but about what I deserved based on training mileage. Garmin said 7.54 mi. so that's what I'm using.
So great to see everyone! Drive back was 1:35. THAT'S more like it.

Orienteering 51:39 [2] 4.07 mi (12:41 / mi) +387ft 11:39 / mi
shoes: Hoka One One Stinson EVO
Easy jog around Babler scouting out white O' course and first two controls of red. Also wanted to test the "screwy" Hokas for tomorrow. The nice thing about the ridiculously thick sole is that pokeage isn't an issue. Good traction!
Very low expectations for Pear Market but I am totally OK with that. Due to my low mileage, I'm looking at it as more of a festive training run.

Trash/recycle hauling duty.
Run (gravel, grass and paved) 43:55 [3] 4.5 mi (9:46 / mi)

Then easy run. Time and distance estimated since I had no watch or Garmin w/ me. Should be close.
