Training Log Archive: 'Bent

Accumulating injuries- time for a couple of days off my knee, shoulder and neck.

Doc Thumbs-of-death would rather have me spin easily on the trainer than sit on the couch.

Easy and limited workout #1- Avoided shoulder stuff, but did extra core.

Easy knee-sparing snowshoe in with Bulletdog.
So nice out, but I need to take it easy.

1:05 actual time

My knee's sore from the crash I took yesterday, so no ski for me. Back on the injured list for now.

Hiked home with the T-dog on the frozen trails, and met Crash and the frisky Skyerocket too.

Yesterday's soft snow froze into rigid, boot-grabbing tracks in the early AM in some sections, others were OK. Some tricky crust.
I made it into town without incident, then wiped out walking on hidden glare ice on the sidewalk 10M from work, right on my @#% knee. I went out to sand the ice shortly after but it had all melted innocently away.

Careful ski back due to sore knee and icy/ breakable crust conditions as snow re-froze in the evening.

Bah. All this snow, but it's only ski-able during the warm part of the day

C • Not really 4

Out around Palgrave West with Bash & Bulletdog. Some hard trail breaking, but some glorious tracks with great grip and glide. One of the best skis of the year. Met lots of 2 and 4 legged pre-hockey fans.

some dumbell and core stuff in front of the men's 50K. Another best-ever by a Canadian Male XC skier- so close tothe podium. I also got in a few sets of lat work before the game, but no shoulders.
