Dog loop with Sassy. All gates working fine now. 9F at the start, so wore a sweater, but sunny and very pleasant.
10 AM
Note
A visit from the claims adjuster, checking out water damage from the ice dams. Come spring there will be a lot of painting, and who knows what else.

More snowshoeing, with a stop to fix the last of the gates.

ahr:145 max:160 shoes: Dion 121 snowshoes
Second course (US) at Stratton Brook. Switched to snowshoes, but not that satisfying. A bit more tiring and kicking up so much snow onto my back, hands, map, etc. Nice courses, nice day.

10 AM
Snowshoe 35:00 [3]
weight:165lbs
Same route as yesterday, with Sassy. Easier, following yesterday's tracks.
11 AM
Running 13:30 [3] 1.5 mi (9:00 / mi)
Jogged a mile on the treadmill, then a harder half mile a bit later as part of a cross fit session. Half mile in 3:25. There was a time when I could run 15 miles or so at that pace. Afraid I couldn't have extended it another quarter now. Treadmill generally was nicer than I had expected. For some reason I have been avoiding it this year.
Gym 15:00 [3]
The balance of the cross fit routine. The workout today was supposed to involve 50 reps of a bunch of exercises, but 25 seemed plenty for my level of acclimation. Hardest of them at the time were back extensions on the GHD machine, but the ones that made me sore after were hang cleans (front delts) and box jumps.
3 PM
Snowshoe 1:00:00 [3]
Another outing with Sassy. Not long, but on and off trail, and stopping to clear snow at each of the gates and to put extra links in the latch chains where the gates shrunk a bit in the cold.
Friday Jan 28, 2011 #
Note
Ice dams! Got some help over here today clearing snow off the middle roof, and chipping some channels in the ice. Water is getting through and into the walls, making quite a mess. Won't know quite how bad until spring, I fear.
3 PM
Snowshoe 40:00 [3]
weight:164lbs
with Sassy, some on and some off trail. Off trail sections interesting, in some of the northern laurel infestations, aiming for and eventually finding the boy scout bridge and then on trail from there. Sinking way in off trail, and particularly in the laurel traps. Sassy struggling, and happy to get on trail again herself.

5 AM
Note
weight:163lbs
10" or so of new snow, a little wetter than what we have been getting, but still reasonable fluffy. Took a while to plow because the places to put it are getting inundated. No need for any upper body workouts with all the shoveling. L elbow pretty stressed, but also lats, triceps, back generally.
8 AM
Snowshoe 1:10:00 [3]
10" of new snow, with Rhonda and Sassy down and around the Big Down Marsh. T-shirt weather today, 19 F.

5 AM
Gym 45:00 [3]
weight:164.5lbs
Rhonda's morning class. Sore from the other day, and particularly from an extended session trying to get snow off the roof, and tired after being out at a land trust meeting until after 10. Total of 5 attendees
8 AM
Snowshoe 55:00 [3]
with Rhonda and Sassy, tour of the Big Down Marsh, same route as yesterday
2 PM
Snowshoe 1:15:00 [3]
similar route to this morning with a few extra side trips, with Rhonda, Sassy and Bill Duncan, who is quite a fine photographer.

10 AM
Snowshoe 1:00:00 [3]
weight:163lbs
On about 2" of new fluffy stuff from overnight, on top of what's already there. Down to the Big Down Marsh with Rhonda and Sassy, then back up through the woods and over the big hill. That was a little strenuous, since nothing had been tracked in. But generally pretty nice.
1 PM
Ski 1:00:00 [3]
Decided to try the land trust trails off Breezy Hill Rd. Not nearly as entertaining as I had hoped. Not well tracked and the trails too narrow for good maneuvering. Poles skittering on the icy layer. With Rhonda.
