| Ran on the canal path in Fairport, from the end of Cobbs Lane eastward. Nearly all of the section I ran on had fairly significant snow, which had been somewhat tracked up by a 4-wheel drive vehicle and what looked to be an ATV. It was still fairly challenging going, for the most part. My ankles and lower shin areas were feeling like they had a workout, which is probably good because maybe this will be fairly good training for off-road running. |

| XC skiing 29:00 [2] | |
| |
| My first XC skiing of the season; in Webster Park. Single-digit temperatures, coupled with moderate winds, made it a bit less than pleasant. Also, there were no tracks when I got there, so I was laboring to set my own tracks. In spite of all that, I felt OK, just didn't want to overdo it on my first time out for the season. |
| Snowshoeing 15:00 [3] | |
| |
| First time using my snowshoes, which were a gift from Cheryl last winter, but there wasn't enough snow to need them! I just did a loop through the woods at the end of the street, then a loop through the trail in the woods in our back yard. They seemed to work well. |

| Downhill skiing 3:00:00 [1] | |
| |
| Downhill skiing at Bristol Mountain. Hardly can be called training, except that it did work some muscles that hadn't been worked in a while. |

| Running 36:00 [3]4.0 mi (9:00 / mi) | |
| max:150 shoes: Saucony Grid Aura TR |
| Ran on the Hojack trail with the canines, Hazel and Homer. Gorgeous day, about 30 degrees, snow falling, about 2 inches of fresh snow on the ground. Had thought of skiing instead but I would have had to have picked a different, more distant location, and wouldn't have been able to handle the dogs and skis at the same time. |

| Running 37:00 [2]4.11 mi (9:00 / mi) | |
| max:140 weight:186lbs shoes: Saucony Grid Aura TR |
| Ran from home, through the woods at the end of the street, to Maple and into Finn Park. Ran the trail to the field then two laps around field (estimate around 0.75 miles per lap). Around 25 degrees, no wind, dressed a bit too warm, with a long sleeve pullover shirt, a t shirt, and a windbreaker on top. |
