 | Skate Skiing 1:25:00 [3] 25 km (3:24 / km) | |
| |
| Went to Hyland expecting less than ideal conditions. I was pleasantly surprised to find it nearly perfect. Sort of built intensity over the workout. Averaged about a 3. Distance an estimate. Two loops of North, one including the nature center spur, and two hill loops. Had to be back at the chalet for Rena's 1st birthday or I probably would have done more. |
| Skate Skiing 30:00 [1] 2 km (15:00 / km) | |
| |
| Skied with Jasper and his friends late in the day at Hyland. Played around on the hill by the Chalet, then skied across the lake and then around the beginner loop. Very fun. |
Thursday Jan 10 |
| Running 1:00:00 [2] 7.0 mi (8:34 / mi) | |
| shoes: Vasque Blur 2 |
| Woke up early and figured I wasn't going back to sleep so I should make the best of it. Went for a run at 5:45 and did the Ford/Lake loop. Much warmer than I expected. I was very slow. Almost 4 minutes slower on the first half than I usually am, and ended up about 6 minutes slower than my usual pace. I'm okay with that. If I hadn't gone then I wouldn't have gotten a workout in at all today. |
Wednesday Jan 9 |
| Skate Skiing 30:00 [2] 6 km (5:00 / km) | |
| |
| Warmed up for about 10 minutes before doing a couple sprints at the MYSL sprint series at Wirth. Then skied the front 9, skiable, but boring. Went over to the hilly side and skied a bit over there before deciding it was too icy to be any fun. Headed back to the car. Made it home in time to have some ice ceam. |
| Skate Skiing 6:00 [5] 2 km (3:00 / km) | |
| |
| 2 X 1 k sprint at Wirth. Should have done more, but the guy I was skiing with only planned on doing a couple and my motivation wasn't high enough to do any by myself on marginal conditions. Boy, that sounds whiny. |
Sunday Jan 6 |
| Running (with Chariot) 40:00 [3] 4.5 mi (8:52 / mi) | |
| shoes: Icebugs MR3 |
| While Molly and Jasper wereat MYSL, I took rena for a run in the Chariot. Just an out and back along River Rd heading south. Slushy conditions. Really warm. I hope others are staying off ski trails to preserve them until we get back to colder temps. My guess is that may not be the case though. |
