Note
@#$! wind! I was going to run home with Bulletdog, but it's howling out there and I suspect if I ran home through the woods, even if I wasn't hit by a falling tree Bash would clock me on the head with a log for being a doofus.
Cycling intervals (Trainer) 1:41:00
Started the 01 Tour de France. I used the first 8 sections as intervals, sprinting the finishes hard. The 9th was the Alp D'Huez, site of the infamous "look" Lance gave to Jan before taking off from everyone and making up for a 35 minute deficit, on one of his best climbs ever. I got caught up in this and rode the whole climb at high zone 4, a lot longer and harder than I had planned for a short post-work spin.

Note
(rest day)
Really tired Sunday evening- maybe short on sleep, or worked harder than I thought on the skate ski hills (No HRM).

Orienteering 2:45:00 [2]
shoes: Ecco GTX + Screws
Actual Time 03:20
Snowshoe O-practice with Goose and Bash, revisiting the scene of the crime from last weekend's Hardrock. Much easier to navigate at a slow pace, and I can actually use the contours and terrain instead of just running bearings.

XC Skiing (Skate) 2:07:00
Skiing at Highlands with Bash and Coach LD. Bash sent LD and me on ahead, and let's just say I kept up, and leave it at that.
Actually, LD gave me the tip I was missing to extend my kick stroke, which helped a lot. We skied on the trails a fair bit, but also did some screaming fast crust cruising. Met up with Bash part way, and LD gave us all a good tour of the farm fields in the area- free-range skate skiing at its best.

Running (Commute) 33:00 [3]
shoes: Ecco GTX + Screws
Run to work with Bulletdog on leash for half.
The crust was hard enough to run on in the AM, mostly. Faster pace where the snow's gone.
When I got to the new fence we found a very recently dead deer beside it on the North side. Poor critter must have run into the fence at high speed in the dark, and something gnawed on her hind quarters. Not a coyote kill, as only a bit was eaten.

XC Skiing (Commute) 35:00 [2]
Easy ski home with the Bulletdog. She gets 25 minutes free-range now.
Wildlife watch- 2 separate Pileated woodpeckers, and about 50 robins digging around in the leaves at our house.

Strength (Core) 22:00 [2]
Caron was in an evil mood, despite her lovely smile. One of the nastier core sessions in a while, at least for me.
Yoga 50:00 [1]
Yin-yang-yow! yoga.

Strength (Home Gym) 1:00:00 [2]
Workout #3 + extra leg stuff and Mique's shoulder workout.
XC Skiing (Commute +) 45:00 [3]
Surprisingly good ski conditions skiing to work on the waxless skis to see the lovely Leanimal.
I was able to crust-cruise on the fields too, and wish I'd had more time for that.

Just caught the last glimmers of light on an icy ski home.
