| 2nd lap of relay. The slower time is mainly a result of the darkness and inability to avoid the mud-pits. The course seemed really slow on this lap compared to the first. I settled in a good rhythm though and it was nice to pass several of the 50k solos out on the course. It gave me some motivation to catch the next runner. I almost fell several times and then I finally tripped over a root and went down about 300m before the finish. It was a fun event and I'm glad I did it. |

| Night ride at Banner with Hayes and Glenn. Good fun ride. My favorite part was riding up the creek-bed. No bears sighted. |

| Arrived at the ferry early, so I did some spinning on the waterfront trail in Lincoln park. The Olympics were stunning with fresh snow at sunset. |

| Snow Skiing 3:30:00 [3] | |
| |
| Hit up Mt. Baker today for my first time. Didn't huck any cliffs since I was skiing by myself, but it looks like there is plenty of potential there. Snow was dumping all day although it was a bit heavy. Still it was a good half-day and I skied hard. |
Wednesday Jan 9 |

| |
| Hit up Stone Gardens for some bouldering. I'm still pretty weak, but I climbed a couple of V2's, but mostly V1s. |
Tuesday Jan 8 |
| Road Running 41:07 [3]5.6 mi (7:20 / mi) | |
| shoes: NB 720 |
| Easy run over to Green Lk. and around. My foot doesn't hurt too bad unless I go up steep hills or hit off-camber stuff. I can feel a loose tendon in there, so I'm not too happy about that, but I think I can keep running on it. I'll keep an eye on it and if it gets out of control I guess I'll have to take it easy. |
Monday Jan 7 |
| Road Running 55:47 [3]7.0 mi (7:57 / mi) | |
| shoes: NB 720 |
| Ran up to Carkeek and back via my loop. Added the north bluff viewpoint onto the normal loop today. Felt pretty good, but my right ankle has a sharp pain at times. I think I might have twisted it in the mud on Sat, but I don't recall. |
