XC Skiing (Commute) 55:00 [3]
Warm-ish, excellent conditions. Bulletdog looks like a greyhound!
Very grippy on the way home- I skied up the steep hill I normally have to de-ski and boot up.
There should be plenty of skiing left when we return.

Strength (Home) 1:00:00 [3]
OK, no time to finish the full 20 pull-up program, so I had to give 'er today.
Last time I tried 15 good-form pull-ups they were hard.
Dropped down to my target weight and stripped down to shorts, and gave it a shot. The first 15 were easy, the last few not so much, but mission accomplished.
Foot/ kneehab and workout 3 too.
Now a few weeks off strength training while in NZ, then back to my regular workouts- no more 100 pushups or 20 pullups.

Extra hills on the way to work today- might as well as the snow was pretty grippy. Feeling pretty fit- running up the hills on skis doesn't wind me right now.
Took a slightly longer way home too- I'm gonna miss the skiing while in NZ>

Note
OK, signed up for Storm The Trent elite solo.
I have no idea if I'll be at racing speed by then, but at least I won't have to worry about slowing down any teammates if I'm not at 100%.
Unfortunately I won't be able to race with Bash yet if she goes to APEX, but I sure hope I can round up a team for WT.

Warmer today- near zero on the way home. Bulletdog's not quite as bullet-y after several days of hard outings. We saw a big pair of deer in the AM and again on the way home. B-dog was alert, but didn't chase them- such a well-behaved hound.

XC Skiing (Commute) 30:00 [3]
Beautiful morning, -25 and no wind. Too cold for the hound though. Need to ski off some veggie haggis.
XC Skiing (Commute +) 40:00 [3]
Snow falling, -11 and still light for part of my commute- perfect!

Foot/ kneehab, workout 1 and 10-14-12-11-9-13 pull-ups.
That''s it- no time for the final workout, I'll just see how many I can do Wednesday.

-20C, sunny and no wind- perfect day for an EFI tour of Palgrave West with Bulletdog. Some good tracks, some untracked trail, some bushwhacking, but good snow throughout.
