Training Log Archive: Fanatic

Colette and I drove to Meadow Street in South Lee to do a short walk, but first she had to snag a geocache. Then we headed towards Oak and Spruce Resort and took a left heading into Beartown State Forest--we only went up a little bit and then turned around and returned to the car. We had decided to keep it short today.

Long walk with Colette in Dalton, starting near Holiday Farm on Route 9. We did a counter-clockwise loop heading down Johnson Road then left onto Old Windsor Road which took us to Route 9 near Friendly Fred's convenience store/gas station. Then another left onto Back Dalton Road, which turned into a slow walk on a muddy, icy dirt road that led us back to our car.

Turns out we were passing through a lot of Dalton Fire District's Wildlife Conservation Easement lands, which might be a nice spot for some late spring exploration hiking. I did spot one fox today as it crossed the road.

Walked with Colette on the indoor track at Simon's Rock. Beats having to get dressed for winter conditions.

Out past the black cows and down Woodland Ave a bit, then I turned around and took Willow Hill Road into Lenoxdale. From there I got over to Golden Hill Road and finally back to the condo.

Warm-up walk on the treadmill at Bard College.

Treadmill running, first two mile at 10-minutes per mile pace, the third one I did some short, faster paced running sections.

It was too nice in the afternoon, sunny and warm, so I took a walk to get the mail and then added on a bit more.

After-dinner walk with Colette on the condo grounds. Still very warm--and nice.

Walk with Colette in downtown Pittsfield, since I had to drop some students off at the Beacon Cinema and I had no interest in watching the Black Panther film. Nothing exciting about walking in Pittsfield though. ;-)
