Running 1:00:00 [4]
shoes: Montrail Hardrock
Run with Thumbs of Death to K2 at Glen Haffy. ToD was going faster than I expected, as this was to be a 2 hr run, but he only did this section fast.
Bash was going to come, but when I got up in the dark at 5AM in the rain she thought better of it- after all there's P&L's party to think of tonight.

Running 1:15:00 [2]
shoes: Montrail Hardrock
Run back with K/O and ToD, plus warm up/cooldown.
Paddlng 1:40:00 [2]
Got out on Island Lake with The Padre, Gazelle and Gazette to practice paddling configurations for both RTN and SAC. First paddle of the year, and it felt great even if my technique's gone down the toilet over the winter.
Bash and I seem acceptably matched to the 2 lads for paddling- they're not too much faster.

Strength 1:00 [5]
Feats-of-strength at the Haven.
I managed 2 more wide-grip pulldowns than last time, but still 4 behind Scotty's record of 17! His partner LiPy also set the woman's record of 5 chinups.
Scotty can also do the Peanut-butter-Jar-on-the-forehead trick better than anyone else!

Cycling (Commute) 30:00 [2]
Did part of the Tree Hugger singletrack- It is definitely meant to be ridden clockwise, not the way I went! Also got a snakebite-flat when I jumped over a curb too fast leaving Reddington, and had to carry the bike the last bit. At least this 'bent's easier to hike-a-bike.
Cycling (Commute) 24:00 [2]
Threatening skies and dinner plans made for a short ride home.

Cycling (Commute) 22:00 [2]
Shorter ride than I'd hoped due to some last-minute paperwork.
Cycling (Commute+) 1:20:00 [2]
Back home with Bulletdog through the Red Dog Singletrack, then around the rest of Palgrave. 5 swims for the pooch!
A recumbent loaded down with a backpack full of computer and paperwork is a bit odd for technical singetrack, but I managed OK.

Cycling (MTB) 2:25:00 [3]
Mega-training part 4 with Bash. Biked from home to Albion and around the trails. The new bike does singletrack really well- I had a nearly perfect ride in the new North East singletrack. Fantastic day to be out- the wild onions are all over the place in vibrant green, perfect temperature, clear skies.
Strength (Core) 40:00 [2]
Mega- training with Bash part 5- the dreaded Hard Core Monday workout.
OK, now it's time to veg out.
