Orienteering 2:15:00 [3]
shoes: Salomon FellCross
Out with Gally for some nav practice. The Mt Nemo woods are a bit of a mess- in many spots it's like the whole upper canopy fell down, and is tough running. As always, Gally can run while navigating faster and more accurately than me. Good thing we have him for GRR.
Strength 1:00:00 [2]
Final couple of hours to finish all the hauling, stacking and dumping of the monster tree pile. I also dragged a few loads of extra-heavy hardwood from a different spot.
I am guessing we have 5 bush cords hauled, stacked and partially split. That's about 8-9 tonnes. Not much storage left.
About 2/3 was from our yard, the rest half a km away through the bush.
Still need about 1 more cord of fire-killed wood from the far hill for next year, as the big pine won't be dry until 2016.

Running 1:10:00 [1]
shoes: Salomon FellCross
Easy commute with Bulletdog. She seems to have a sore shoulder, so she set a pokey pace coming home, but I brought in a very full wagon of wood from the bush so some workout especially on the uphills.

Strength (Lumberjack) 40:00 [2]
Foothab, kneehab, new 1-leg squats, ladder agility, and went out and split the last of the logs from the big tree. Still plenty of hauling and dumping unburnable lumps left.

Warmup, cooldown and run home in the dark after work with the big guy.
Running tempo 30:00 [4]
shoes: Salomon FellCross
Solid tempo run. I was supposed to run flat trails, but the flat bits at the Eastern edge of Palgrave East are a bog. Still had a flat-ish run, including closed sections of Duffy's lane.

Running 1:05:00 [1]
shoes: Salomon FellCross
Easy jog commute with the big guy, and walked the hills. Still a bit of ice on the shaded double track.

Running 1:50:00 [3] 12.7 km (8:40 / km) +390m 7:31 / km
shoes: Salomon Snowcross
1 lap of the Pick Your Poison course at Horseshoe with Bash, Willderness and Eric. Some hard icy stuff, some muck but mostly snow up to 30xm or so. Glad to have poles and spikes.
Mostly easy pace, but Will and I had some good solid climbs and fast descents. He can move!
Definitely not doing the race next week- too much slush.

Running 1:48:34 17.72 km (6:08 / km) +374m 5:33 / km

Good run with Goose to the Dingle. Not much ice until after we went down the switchbacks past the stile. The whole way heading South up from the creek was very icy still. We took the horse trail back to the fish ponds, and a nice little bit of sub-4 tempo back down to the trail. Goose was fast there in my borrowed Hokas.
Also saw BGY-girl riding her horse on the road.

Running 50:00 [3]
shoes: Salomon FellCross
Nice run in the Charlevoix trails with BZDog. 95% ice-free now.
I thought my number was up when the beast saw Fabio the wild turkey and his ladies right in front of us in our yard, but got him to sit before he tore my arm off.

Strength (Lumberjack) 45:00 [2]
90 min more slugging, and I'm almost finished with any useable wood from the big pine tree. Maybe one more load, and a lot of hauling away of knots and rotten stuff still to go.
