Running tempo (Treadmill) 30:00 [4] 4.6 mi (6:31 / mi)
shoes: Saucony Road
Looks like I run at 9.2 MPH or 4:03/km on the (non-metric) treadmill to keep it just in zone 4.
I'm hoping to hold 4:15 to 4:30 in the Tuscon marathon.
Our treadmill only goes up to 10MPH so it won't do for fast speed work but it's fine for tempo. Back to collecting cobwebs for it after this week.

Another somewhat lethargic workout #2. Starting to get over my cold though.

XC Skiing 45:00 [2]
Slower ski but hard work in sticky conditions. Still great to be out. We met Bash and T-dog at dusk part way home.
Strength (Core) 20:00 [2]
Caron's class
Yoga 50:00 [2]
I think I did something to my left hamstring during Bounding- it was brutal in class with lots of hamstring stuff this time

Strength (Home gym) 30:00 [2]
Just half workout #2 as I'm not feeling 100%.
Running tempo 45:00 [4]
Shorter less intense speed work today.
I also met lads who were cutting all the fire-killed poplars on the fenceline between our neighbours and the conservation area.

XC Skiing (Commute) 30:00 [3]
Quick in spots, slushy in others, but it still beats driving!
Note- getting a cold :(

Misc (Bounding) 1:00:00 [2]
(1hr 20) I'm now a Bounding Babe!
Even though I'm getting a cold and felt like cr*p, I'm glad I went.
Coach LD's working on our technique.
As for relays, what's with all the cheerleader stuff like cartwheels? Stick to the manly pushups and burpees.
Forget the Bear Walk- either my head has to be tucked in and my glasses fog completely, or I have to lift it up into Time Trial roadie position and destroy my neck.
Otherwise good times.

Hiking 40:00 [1]
(55 min) Hike home in the snow and dark with T-dog.
A little slower today after all her romping yesterday, but she still did OK.
She's so proud to be The Office Dog.

Orienteering race 52:00 [4]
shoes: Icebugs red
Thomas Kelso.
Ugh. Despite my compass magnifier and bifocal glasses, still had trouble seeing controls like #3 on the map and ended up re-visiting controls way too many times. I should really go a lot slower- I felt like I wasn't in proper contact with the map too much.

Local ski with Coach LD. First lap with both dogs, then a second longer lap of Palgrave West and the Charlevoix trail with Bulletdog flying along.
Most fun!
