Strength (Home Gym) 1:00:00 [2]
Workout #3
Cycling 2:15:00 [4]
Rode down to Albion and around absolutely everything and back. The 'bent worked like a dream, handling like it was on rails thanks to conditons that were neither muddy nor dusty. I had the best ride of the entire year, making all the tricky bits for the first time. Probably a level 5 for a fair bit, but it felt so good compared to riding with 25kg onboard.
Stopped on the road to move the world's biggest Praying Mantis.

Cycling (commute) 24:00 [2]
What a nice morning! I rode into a field as the sun came up, and there were thousands of spider webs in the weeds outlined in dew in the rising sun and light frost.
Cycling (commute) 27:00 [2]
Should have been an easy ride home, but carrying 4 bags of produce and my work pack home on the trails thru Palgrave was a little more work!
This seems to be peak harvest time for the organic farm we belong to.
Good thing I got an extra-expandable pannier that converts to a backpack.

Tight on time after an appt with Thumbs-of-Death, so only the first 1/2 of Workout 2.

Commute with Bulletdog. She's recovered from T.Fox for sure!
Running 40:00 [3]
A nice night jog with Bash, Gazelle and Gazette, Phatty and LeAnimal around Palgrave.
We're losing G&G to Tadjikistan next week for a few years, and will miss our buddies and teammates.

Running hills 20:00 [4]
Pushed the pace a bit with the boys for a loop from Duffy's through the Charlevoix trail. Nice to not run with a heavy pack or clogged lungs.

Running (commute) 1:15:00 [1]
shoes: Ecco Receptor
Easy jog/hike to work and back with the T-dog.
I'm surprisingly stiff from the hard, flat, fairly short run yesterday. Shows I haven't done any speed work for too-oo long.

Running race 46:55 [5] 10.5 km (4:28 / km)
shoes: Montrail Hardrock
Ran the Terry Fox run with Bulletdog.
It's supposed to be 10km, an out-and-back, but the turn-around was farther than the one last year on the same trail, and several of us thought it was about 10.5km.
I don't know if it was the longer course, the residue of my cold or stopping to swim Bulletdog, but it took 3 minutes longer than last year. Bulletdog almost dislocated my arm when we met Bash on the way back. I don't think I'm meant to be a 10K runner.
Bulletdog rasied $635 and we were 3rd finishing (Actually I'm not sure if I crossed before bulletdog)
