Snowshoe Running (Ungroomed) 47:13 [4] 5.13 km (9:13 / km) +99m 8:24 / km
slept:6.75 shoes: Salomon XR Crossmax CS pink/gr

AdventureDog and I ran a loop in Palgrave West on snowshoes. I'm not feeling 100% - maybe getting 'Bent's cold? Even on a better day, I still would have walked up the untracked hills where the snow is fairly deep and heavier now that the temperature has gone up. There were a few nice stretches where a snowshoe track is getting set.

Lots of family and food over the next couple of days. :)

Merry Christmas to my Attackpoint friends! Happy Hanukkah too, starting at sunset tonight.

XC Skiing - Classic (Groomed & Ungroomed) 1:37:30 [3] 9.85 km (6.1 kph) +161m
slept:5.0

Funderstorm came to check out the Hockleycrest trails. We sent 'Bent off to ski on his own while we did a tour of the highlights. The snow isn't as deep and fluffy as it was a few days ago, and the wind has blown in some hard drifts and bumps on a few trails. It was a wonderful ski but some trails were more challenging than they were on Sunday. Funderstorm did really well and failed to do any spectacular wipeouts that I could have photographed and posted here. :) We finished with a trip to the Hockley General Store for lunch and Christmas shopping.

Snowshoe Running 50:06 intensity: (10:00 @4) + (40:06 @5) 5.56 km (9:01 / km) +82m 8:24 / km

Snowshoe run around Palgrave West, mostly breaking trail in heavy snow or following one set of soft tracks. I finished on Duffy's Lane, which is closed for the winter and has a snowmobile track, so it felt more like running than strength training.

Snowshoeing (Bushwhacking) 15:02 [2] 0.82 km (18:23 / km) +36m 15:04 / km

There was no way I was going to try to run while bushwhacking in soft snow and forest debris, especially after working so hard already!

Snowshoe Running 10:22 [3] 1.09 km (9:30 / km) +16m 8:51 / km

Final burst of energy when I emerged onto trails near our place. I'd expected to hike all the way home but I actually felt like running. Huh.

One of those lost days when the contractor who is supposed to arrive between 9 and 1 doesn't arrive until 2, and then the work takes 2 hours. On the bright side, I consumed a lot of Christmas chocolate while waiting around.

AdventureDog and I went bushwhacking (mostly) on snowshoes at sunset. We worked hard, especially up hills, but it was still molasses pace in all this beautiful powder. We stopped by Crash's place to say hi to her and her Mom, and "WOOFWOOFWOOF!!" to her dogs.

Sunsets make me think of Dad. He was an avid photographer and almost always finished his slide shows with a sunset. He would say, "As the sun sets slooooowly in the west...", and we knew the show was ending. Nice memories.
