Training Log Archive: 'Bent

Short workout at the THABC gym. They have a good rowing erg, and a used the cable machine and dumbells a bit- shoulder is still sore. Did some rehab too.

Trot with the beasts up the switchback trail, around the top and then back down some of the snowshoe trails. Some packed broken down ice, some old snow, some dry ground, some muck.
Interesting exploring. The dogs loved the outing, even if some of the descents were challenging with Bazingadog on harness.

I let the birthday beast choose the route home and sniff whatever he wanted. Bazingadog is 7!

rehab and legs- tried some very light upper body stuff but shoulder too sore.

Just a bit of a spin.

Out around the Charlevoix trails with Logan. Did some plyo, lunges etc too.
The melting ice was actually the best footing- the recently melted muck was really treacherous.

Run home at night on mainly soft ice- avoided the melted bits.

Broke out the Kahtoolas but the trail was about half bare and half wet ice so the La Sportivas would have been better.

On the way home I slid out on the mud on the steep uphill and fell forward just as the big guy lurched after a squirrel and I got my right shoulder painfully yanked up. No faceplant but it hurt.

Gleaming ice on 80% of my commute. AD was sliding.

Rockwood o-cup.
Interesting area, and format split us up early.
I had a decent plan, doing one box after 2, then 3 and the second box then 4. I ended up navigating myself for a lot, which I like.

After the boxes Isak caught me and we leapfrogged back and forth for the rest of the race. Nick caught us at 13, and we took 3 different routes then converged on 14. They got me on the final uphill to the finish, as expected.
Pekka (sp?) was first, then Nick just pipped Isak at the line.

Odd warm windy day. Good race course and nice treats after. Thanks Mark and DD_11
