Hiking 1:05:00 [3] 3.0 km (21:40 / km)
shoes: Merrell Moab
Family hike at the cottage after arriving from Ottawa. Introduced Robbie to the Bear/Blue Arrow trails. Fun hike, with tree-climbing, watching Hazel have a blast hunting ‘munks, and enjoying photo ops at various lookout spots. Perfect hiking conditions: coolish, clouds with sunny breaks. SO good to be up in the woods again, and to spend time together - all five of us, plus Hazel!
3 PM
Run Sandwich 51:15 [3] 7.08 km (7:14 / km) +162m 6:30 / km
ahr:143 max:181 shoes: ASICS Gel Kayano 26
Oh, wow! Great (but tough) cottage run sandwich. 1 km walk warm up + 4 km run + 500m walk + 2 X {500m run + 250m walk}.
Stuck to the Slubicki-Grabowski corridor route. Felt like the running portions were really sluggish, but my watch tells me that I stayed close (+\-) to 6 min pace, so not as bad as I thought!
How gorgeous was it? A very beautiful outing, with mild temps but a sunshine that warmed me up enough to JUMP IN THE FREEZING COLD LAKE IN MY RUNNING STUFF RIGHT AFTER I FINISHED!!!! Wahooo! Froze the jibblies, but really enjoyed it!!! :)

Walking 1:06:10 [3] 7.36 km (8:59 / km)
shoes: Merrell Ventilator-types
Mild morning (10C), fresh from last night’s sprinkle. Out to the second Woodroffe sign and back. TONS of birds out there: redwing pairs defending turf by mobbing crows and each other, my cute chipping sparrows, a goldfinch. The two pigeons were in a different spot this time - at Duckie Point, foraging with the wood duck pair and two redwings (!). Watch out: the pigeons are on the move!
Felt a bit creaky and tired today. Hip joints and RKnee sore. Hmmm... damp weather?
17 morning greetings.

Beautiful sunny day! Explored the Mud Lake area with Anita. Lots of birds, squirrels, and bunnies - and bird-watchers!- along the way. What a gorgeous morning!

19th T tunnel and back. Strong headwind on the way out, nicer on the way back :) Felt a bit tired; took about 10km to warm up. Was cycling through snowflakes in Chipmunk Alley WTF!!!!!
Passed Ursus near the Richmond Rd bridge - guess he was just on his way out!

Run Sandwich 1:06:59 [3] 9.0 km (7:27 / km)
shoes: ASICS Gel Kayano 26
Another windy-chilly day! Strangest May ever, with snow yesterday and temps just above zero for the most part.
Walked 2 km as a warm-up, then: 4 km run + 500m walk +
2 X {500m run + 500m walk}, with a walk the rest of the way home. Negative splits on the solid run portion.
Saw the pileated w/p in the tree near Don and Marie’s; muskrat swimming in the retention pond; lots of sparrows, robins, red-wings, the ubiquitous squirrels, and - strangely - the same two pigeons (in the same spot) along the SJAM.
21 good morning greetings. Exchanged a Happy Mother’s Day with a woman who wished me that! :)
