Orienteering race 1:04:00 [5]
Thomass UKR. Not a lot of nav required for this one, more just a trail run. Still with all the snow it was a good slog. Great weather, had a great time out there.

Cycling 1:00:00 [2]
Light spin on the trainer, decided I didn't feel like going outside in the cold for an early morning run.
Note
Just saw an announcement for MIX on the web. Apparently I have now signed up to be a member of one of the great teams in NA. Definitely getting pumped and it's still 5 months away.
Registered teams include racers from 27 different states and two Canadian provinces. With only seven teams from the host state of Michigan, the event certainly has shown a national appeal and is widely considered as the biggest adventure race in the United States for 2007. The event has drawn some top notch competition including past Michigan C2C winners SOLE and Absolute Endo. Challenging these past podium winners will be great teams from all over North America including: Eastern Mountain Sports, Silly Rabbits, Enduraventure, WEDALI, NMET, TravelCountry.com, Checkpoint Zero, and Salomon/Sunnto just to name a few.

Stretching 20:00 [1]
After all the activity this weekend, figured I need to spend some time stretching.
Orienteering 1:30:00 [1]
Pixie and I headed out on the THI map to play in the snow. I made us wear snowshoes so we got a bit of a workout while we walked around in the woods. Pixie navigated almost all of them and did pretty well. I had her trying to navigate from point to point without stopping to take a bearing.

FAR Winter Race
Adventure Racing race 6:00:00 [4]
FAR Winter Race. We did really well on the bike/trek considering one teammate was suffering with bad stomach pain. Could have found the first advanced ski checkpoint much cleaner, but otherwise no major problems. This race definitely favored the strong skiers which was a nice change from previous races, 4th place overall.

Strength 30:00 [2]
The closest thing I can think to use for paddle training is the hand bike at the gym right now. Now that I've been lifting weights for a bit I'm going to back off a bit for one day a week and spend more time on the bike.
Strength 30:00 [1]
Rest of the workout.

Running 1:00:00 [3]
Out for a nice run in the cold weather this morning. Legs felt really sluggish. I've moved onto Base2 period, so this run included 10 sprints (well really just a pickup of the pace for 100/200 m) during the run.
Note
Was going to ride tonight, but EJ called during the day and said he had tickets to the Raptors, row 16. Seeing as I've never sat outside the Sprite zone I couldn't say no.
