Event: The Eliminator Adventure Run
 

Eliminator at Rocky Ridge. Awesome and challenging course and woods were snow free and dry. Placed 4th and 3rd in knockout rounds 1 and 2, respectively and then 4th overall in the final round. Nav went well with only one 10-15s bobble on the first 25 checkpoints and then lost 60-90s on the very last control. Trail junction in the RR maze of trails. Turned off the brain and paid for it. Thanks for a great course Patrick. RR is tougher to run in now post ice storm but it is still grest to run in.

Cold morning with -21C windchill but sunshine and 5+cm of fresh snow made for great snowshoeing. Crust cruising with some fresh powder. Headed out to Dinner Lake and explored some new areas. A few places I broke through the ice but I was plenty warm with the sunshine.

My training in 2017 suggests that unless there is snow or nav involved I won't train outside. Seems about right.

Total: 56 hours
Snowshoeing: 18 hours (including SSR)
Skiing: 17 hours
Indoor stuff: 16.5 hours
Orienteering: 2.5 hours
Non map, non snow sports, or non indoors stuff: 2 hours (3.5%)

At MAG in a nasty snow storm. Super windy. Broke through ice a few times and had troubles getting the frozen snow shoes off at the end. +1 to the new Timmies at Byng Inlet. Only Timmies between Sudbury and Parry Sound.
