Skijoring 1:45:00 [3]
All over Palgrave east and west with the big guy. The first few kilometers were a rocket ride, and then he settled in. New glide wax made for quite fast ski conditions- Surprisingly good.
Snowshoeing 30:00 [3]
Off with both dogs to fetch a load of firewood from the hilltop 1km away. Hard work even with a well-sliding sled.

Workout 1 + foot/kneehab.

Nice ski out the door with Bash and the bounding Bulletdog. Fresh new snow falling, ski tracks are the best they've been in years- love it.

Skijoring 30:00 [3]
-14 with hard trails and a powerful beastie made for rocket-fast sections. I still have to pay my dues on most of the commute though, when he's on sniff-and-pee duty.
Man, I love commuting by ski in this kind of weather. Favorite time of year.

XC Skiing 38:00 [3]
Slow slog in wet snow to work, with a very restrained slack-leash Bazingadog. It just turned to rain in the last few mintues. What a mess!
Skijoring 29:00 [3]
Started out like Turbo in Iceland- my stuff was still wet from the AM and it was snowing horizontally- I was really cold. Better once I got warmed up- snow was much faster, and BZ dog did some high speed runs on the gradual downhills.

Snowshoeing 1:20:00 [1]
Hike with Bash and the Hounds. We did some of the biggest hills, following icebreaker tracks.
XC Skiing 1:30:00 [3]
Tour of Charlevoix trails with Bash, then off to Palgrave East- fast conditions with pretty hard snow. I did the new switchbacks, and had to jump-tele the turns.

Foot/kneehab and most of workout 2 inc sets of 11 pull-ups.

XC Skiing 1:30:00 [2]
Round 2- very nice tour of areas we rarely visit on a total bluebird day.
Looks like some good snowshoeing to be had too, as stuff is frozen over.
Saw odd tracks- cow! The farmer's cattle apparently went walkabout.

Snowshoeing 52:00 [2]
Round 3- up hill and dale with the hounds. We checked out a control I dropped yesterday too. BZdog was a lot better, until we got on the track from the control, when he started tracking fiercely. Turns out 2 large deer were using the trails from the Icebreaker.
11 AM
Skijoring 15:00 [2] 2.5 km (6:00 / km) +105m 4:58 / km
Fail. Dogs were going nuts with all of us out there, and wrestling with harness tied to skier with poles on icy snow- not good.
Eventually BZdog and I got out in front, but Mocha was distracting him by chasing Bash, so I turned them around and headed home.
Top speed- 2:30/km.
