7 AM

Running tempo 15:00 [4] 3.2 km (4:41 / km) +20m 4:33 / km
shoes: NB MT 101

First part of the run- forgot to reset the Garmin last time.
8 AM

Running tempo 1:06:22 [4] 13.89 km (4:47 / km) +161m 4:31 / km
shoes: NB MT 101

SMTNY- Solid run around the singletrack, doubletrack and a few roads in North York. Some good climbs, including one crazy steep up the side of the valley.

Pace was good for me, but I can't seem to get my 50 year old ass any faster than 4:10/km or so on the flats.

First part of the run is on a separate entry.

Running warm up/down 6:32 [2] 1.13 km (5:48 / km) +6m 5:39 / km

Note

Moab Porcupine Rim Recumbentcam video.

"Can that thing go off-road?"

Only one camera angle I'm afraid. Mark is working on a 3-camera video. It gets progressively more technical, so if you have a short attention span skip ahead to the second half.

The bikers I'm chasing are Joe and Mac, (who race O-cup Expert/ Elite) and the speedy Harps.

Best viewed in HQ.

Cycling (Commute +) 1:15:00 [3]

Solid ride without dogs around Palgrave East. Great conditions and a fast ride.

Strength (Core) 20:00 [2]

Tabata Core with Caron

Yoga 1:00:00 [1]

Strength 1:00:00 [2]

Kneehab, foothab, workout 1 + KB and a measly 8-8-6 pullups.

Running tempo 45:00 [4]
shoes: Brooks CP6 Green

Solid run to work. Both dogs and I were puffing hard by the end.
Left inner ankle a touch sensitive after yesterday's escapades.

Running (Barefoot) 35:00 [1]

http://www.onedaywithoutshoes.com/

My assistant's daughter is into this campaign and gave me a shirt, so what was I to do? Full foot nudity for most of the commute.

First part was the worst- wet grass at 1C was brutal. Freezing cold. At one point I couldn't take the sticks and pine cones on frozen feet so I donned my 5-fingers for a 1/2 K stretch, but ooched and ouched the rest carefully barefoot.

Most painful part- thawing my feet in the shower after.

Running (Barefoot) 35:00 [1]

Warmer when I headed home- up to about 6C. It started to rain though, then hail. Still made it all the way fully barefoot.

Once my feet are numb it's not so bad. Wish they'd put One Day Without Shoes later in the year.

Cycling 2:00:00 [3]

Great ride down to Albion and around. Trails are bone-dry but not dusty, and someone seems to have lowered the hills and bumps since Moab, as I had quite a good ride in the middle ring. Also the 'bent seems to be tracking on rails compared with some of the loose sandy stuff in the Saltwash Flats trail.

Chico's been at work doing some bypasses of sections that have gotten too rooty or washed out in the few km past the sugar shack.

Pulled the plug a bit early due to howling winds and creaking trees.

Note

Paddlng (erg) 25:00 [2]

Time to start paddling. I had to lock BZdog out so he wouldn't attack the trainer ropes.

Running 1:30:00 [3]
shoes: NB MT 101

Steady paced run along the Grand river in Brantford with the hounds.
Bazingadog's getting fit- by the end 9 year old Mocha the Bulletdog was lagging a bit, while the lad was still bouncing.

Running drills after.

My scrawny calves are sore again- so they're taking the stress instead of the knee.
