XC Skiing - Classic (Groomed ) 1:01:35 [3] 9.04 km (8.8 kph) +167m
slept:5.75

Late afternoon ski at Scenic Caves with Coach LD while Goose and ‘Bent skied in a different direction. I’d expected to ski alone - not with someone fresh from the podium at the World Masters Ski Championship - so I’d brought scratched-up waxless skis. That made for a great workout chasing the Coach around the beautiful forest. We only saw 2 other skiers, not counting our husbands. So nice. :)

If you're looking for a different workout, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is currently live on Facebook with a State of the Union Physical Fitness Test. The Late Show staffers are doing flies in this photo because he said "America". They just finished a bunch of burpees because he said "Immigration" and "Crime" a few times. Much healthier than the drinking games some American friends were planning.

Btw "Tweet Squats" are squats where you hold your smart phone in both hands and use it as you squat.

Snowshoe Running 50:40 6.1 km (8:19 / km) +147m 7:25 / km

Snowshoe run around Palgrave West with AdventureDog - probably the best way to enjoy 8 cm of fluffy new snow on top of glare ice and lumpy frozen crust. I planned to do a few repeats of uphill strides at the end but I felt so tired running up Raspberry Hill the first time that I just headed for home. Sunday's run is still in my legs! It was a spectacular winter day that reminded me of why we named this trail the Charlevoix Route.

Running (Trail) 4:19:36 [3] 25.74 km (10:05 / km) +978m 8:29 / km

Fun, chatty long run with Browner in the Hockley Valley. There was lots of ice on the trails, particularly when we got into the park, so we ran in Kahtoola Microspikes except for the gravel road sections. It didn't feel as bad as I was afraid it might, which is a good sign. We had a yummy brunch at the Black Birch afterward.

Fortunately, *one* of us made sure our STORM buff showed up in the photo. ;)
