| Feeling a bit lethargic lately so opted for a late afternoon really easy run to get the legs going and see how the cold is doing. Thinking that its the lack of sun here for the blahness. Probably have experienced more cloudy days this week than the last 6 months. Also forgot how slow it is to run in wet snowy trails. Took a tumble on some ice. Good times. |

| Nothing like killing yourself after xmas at the Boxing Day 10 Miler. Considering I've been sick, got Westjet'itis (i.e. deydrated from recycled air and just Calgary in general), literally tired from a late evening and over ate last it wasn't too bad. Managed to shave a whole minute or less off my previous time. Meh, not great but not bad considering all the craziness in the last 24hrs! |

| Stair sets at the oval with Hasselhof aka Bart (he's Dutch so its warranted). Last day of work and its dead as hell. Was planning to rent a car and go skiing this weekend but the throat is killing me and rather not get sick before i go home for the holidays - been teetering on sickness the past few weeks. Running in this bone dry weather is killing the respiratory system. |

| Canmore Nordic for a lesson and some cruising around. Might be sore tomorrow. This sport requires some skill which I'm lacking at this point in time. Hit the Drake after for some food. |

| Make up your own class day. No show again by the instructor. What a tool. Glad I'm in the Tuesday class next term with a better instructor. Unfortunately won't be able to do the make up class with apparently an assassin of instructor next week.
Been feeling a bit like ass lately. Staying home tomorrow milking some personal days. That is I personally don't want to go to work! |

| Climate Change and Rock Stars. Interestingly Shawn Marshall our climate change researcher and resident expert here got interview by Much Music for a CC special by some members of Sum 41 and Hannah Simone (also of Flick Off fame commericals) Yummy. His words about HS..."that was intense!". Hell yeah. If that was me doing that interview, CO2 output would be off the charts and I would have radiated enough heat to melt some glaciers.
Is climate change becoming too rockstar now or what? Its almost too trendy. One of these days public opinion is going to shift due to overexposure and this issue will be sadly buried in back again. Just hope some progress will be made while its at the fore front. |
