Jogging (Trails) 2:29:30 [3] 16.7 km (8:57 / km)
shoes: Other
I haven't done much jogging this summer (OK, essentially none, other than at SCAR and Nitrogaine), but we were camped beside Bruno's Run trail, and it was calling my name....
It wasn't even 10C/50F when I started out but as usual, I soon warmed up. The sun was poking through the trees.....hemlocks, pines, deciduous softwoods.... glistening on the multiple lakes I passed....just beautiful. I diligently walked the up hills and jogged and flats and downhills. I met 2 women walking the trail and a family starting to head out on their mountain bikes, but other than that, I had it all to myself.
One pile of bear poop, but no Bruno. I did wear a bear bell, but it was more to warn mountain bikers that I was there (or so I told myself until I saw the pile of scat).
The trail has had a couple minor revisions in the last couple years and a couple more are under way (more switchbacks rather than straight downhills which were eroding).
Good stretching session afterwards, and I expect to be sore tomorrow.....but so worth it!
Kayaking 1:00:00 [3]
A good half hour of paddling on the river and Fish Lake, followed by a couple hours of fishing, then a good half hour of paddling to get back to camp.
Spent some time watching a loon play in the water. Or whatever it is called when they splash around in the water.....
A couple bites and the sighting of a large pike, but no fish for supper tonight.
Being a Friday, the camp and lake started to get busy. Saw 3 kayaks, one canoe and a small motor boat out fishing.
