canicross 35:00 [3] 3.2 km (10:56 / km)

The poor speed is explained by the fact I was actually snowshoeing without snowshoes, only kamiks. That was the best speed I could get up. It was tough, tough cardio. Now I need new kamiks.

Snowshoeing 34:14 [3] 3.4 km (10:04 / km) +24m 9:44 / km

It's the kind of wet snow that builds up under your crampons and slows down your pace the longer you run.

canicross 29:00 [3] 3.0 km (9:40 / km)
shoes: Columbia Trail Meister

Stony Swamp, windchill -15

Ziggy mistakenly crawled in a burrow with a sleeping porcupine. In a hurry Ziggy exited, terrified but calm. Ten minutes later when the porcupine decided to leave his warm spot, Ziggy then realized the porcupine was wrestling size. Ziggy so wanted to visit him then. Perhaps that's one of the reasons why there are no dogs allowed over here after the first of December.

canicross 18:00 [3] 1.8 km (10:00 / km)
shoes: Columbia Trail Meister

We could still find our footing in the snow on our O-course...only one small ice ball in the foot to remove on course. windchill -20

spin 1:17:00 [2] 9.4 km (8:11 / km)

bigbluemarble & I did MTB geocaching through field and forest near Qualicum Beach, BC. For much (if not most) of the workout we were pushing or carrying bikes. We got to enjoy me falling down flat (three times).

shoes: Columbia Trail Meister

It was a bit tricky finding footing on our mile (through the woods) now covered in snow. I'm off to Nanaimo tomorrow and wonder if that was our last run through the Whalen Park forest until spring.

Is this THE run for December? I had to be careful of too many shoppers with automoblies.

There was not enough snow for snowshoes but more than enough to ball up in Ziggy's foot fur. We were on the trails for hours.
