Cycling 1:00:00 [3]

Patrolling my section of the BPMR. No broken bikes this year, but a hobbled Chief. Rain held off.

Running 20:00 [3]
shoes: Salomon FellCross

Speed- flagging the trail with Frankenjack after delays for thunderstorms and buckets of rain. It cleared up while we ran.

Strength (Misc) 45:00 [2]

Core, foothab/kneehab, pushups, every kind of exercise I could devise with canoe straps and a van, at my second CP.

Running 1:25:00 [3]
shoes: Brooks CP6 Green

Nice run around the Pinery, followed by some feeble attempts at body surfing.

Paddlng 20:00 [3]

Coaxed out in the breaking 1M surf. I felt pretty good in the ski going out and bobbing along. I managed to surf a bit coming in, and braced on one wave that tried to broach me then turned back into the waves for a second shot. I saw Bash eject, but I was hanging in there 'til I was hauled out of the boat by a breaker.
Goose was unbelievable solo-ing his monster WW canoe, and stayed dry!

Paddlng 2:50:00 intensity: (2:00:00 @2) + (50:00 @3)

Out for a paddle with Goose and Bash. We started on Lk Huron, and it was pretty wavy. I felt wobbly and tense in the Wavemaster, especially as my rudder hadn't gone down. Once on the river all was fine, and we had an interesting paddle up into the Pinery on a weedy creek.
Traded for the ski part way back, and it was faster on the river and much more stable in the waves. Even did a little surfing. Bash was fine in the Wavemaster, but I'm not crazy about the stick steering.

Misc (Portage) 20:00 [3]

Took our heaviest boat for a hike and boatwhack up the steepest hills on the property.

Strength 1:00:00 [2]

Foot/kneehab, workout 1 + KB.

Running 1:25:00 [3]

4-swim run with Bazingadog.
Foot and legs feel good.

Trying to stay motivated for WT after Laval had to drop out injured.

Monday Aug 6, 2012 #

Running 25:00 [2]
shoes: Brooks True Grit Red

Short run to test out my foot, this time without the Barefoot Science insoles.
Getting better, but not 100%. Also feel my knee.

The dogs and I were surprised to find a huge tree across the little gate on the main access trail to the conservation area. We did a detour through the thick bush and brambles to find a way around, but it's not feasible.

Strength (Lumberjack) 30:00 [2]

90 min spent cutting a bypass of the fallen tree, including sawing some big downed logs by hand and a lot of heaving and hauling.
Not going near the even bigger parts still in the air. The new route should work, and there's no poison ivy there.

Cycling 2:30:00 [3]

Down to Albion and around.
Busy in the campground but the trails were deserted on a perfect day.
I tried to attack all the big hills, and threw in 2 extra Green Monster intervals.
Hoping my bike cramping may go away with more hill training. Never happens on single-sport days.
