| shoes: Salomon XA Pro 3D old |
| Up the river to the fourth bridge, along the roads to the second bridge, and back along the river. Faster going than usual with the firm, refrozen snow. All the slush and water I encountered on Thursday was solid again (though a bit slippery). There were nice ATV tracks most of the way, up to the 1 km section with a many areas of thin ice and open water just before the third bridge. No tracks past there. Stayed more or less on the river (didn't go up the bank) and managed to get through all the thin stuff with dry feet. |

Conditions were still pretty good, though a bit icy. Was cautious on the hills and made it down all of them. |

| The temperature had been above freezing since yesterday morning, so I went for a run rather than skiing like I had planned. Ran along the roads to the second bridge over the river, and back along the river. There was several inches of slush/water to run through in many places along the river, but the ice beneath held up fine. |

Sunday Mar 2 |
| Running 3:05:00 [1] 30 km (6:10 / km) | |
| shoes: Salomon XA Pro 3D old |
| Started off along the lake with the dog, until the dog ran off. She came back eventually, but I wasn't too pleased with her running off so I returned home and left her there. Then I ran along the roads to the third bridge over the river, and back along the river, except for a 1 km section that had many areas of thin ice and open water which I avoided by running up on the bank. I probably would have been better off staying on the river though... bushwhacking in deep snow up on the bank wasn't fun, and the water wasn't deep and it wasn't cold out, so I don't think going through the ice a bunch of times would have been too bad. |
