| 8x5min intervals in the swampy, soggy, cold, snowy, grounds at the high school. There was a constant wet snow coming down which was very cold on the hands. I tried to imagine the Jorgen Martensson picture of him splashing through the swamps...only slower. |

| The 2 minutes of jogging between the 8x5min intervals. These 2 minutes seem very short! |

| Note | |
| |
| Saw the varied thrush this morning in the back corner of the backyard hopping around on the ground. They have some cool coloration. They are very close to a black-headed grosbeak, which I also claim to have seen in the backyard. So now I have some doubts about the grosbeaks. I thought that what I saw had thick beaks. Hope they come back so that I can resolve question. |
