Event: North Face Endurance Challenge
 

CrossFit class #2. We spent some time at the beginning learning presses and deadlifts and then did a workout of 3 rounds of 400m run, 21 kettlebell swings and 15 deadlifts. Had a different coach today and liked how he explained things. Workout was fun!

The learning bit...

On the August long weekend, Mrs. Tiny, Allison and I are doing the LaCloche Silhouette Trail. I have wanted to do this for so long and am so excited to finally have made it a priority this year! We wanted to balance some good time on feet with time to enjoy the scenery so are doing it over 2.5-3 days. We had a planning meeting (i.e. who brings the wine?) at Mrs. Tiny's a couple of weeks ago, and last night Mrs. Tiny and I went out to Hilton Falls for a gear test and some time on feet, as it had been awhile since either of us had done much with a bigger pack. We both had most of what we hope to bring in 30L packs (including the wine and a bottle of Fireball) and were pleasantly surprised that the packs were more comfortable than we had thought they might be. The evening was gorgeous and it was a good test run as we both found things that we'd do differently in a couple of weeks. Mosquitos were very hungry though, which inspired continued forward movement!

Words of wisdom from anyone who has done the loop are welcome!

Ran over to Chicopee and did some hill repeats. Got a race coming up in Colorado that I am *pretty* sure will not be flat! Rain started just as I was running home which felt great and helped with the cool down!

With Mrs. Tiny at Guelph Lake. Gorgeous summer day and we had lots of fun taking our boats down random outlets to see where they went!
