Quick run after work.

Well, I suppose I should start logging some training again. Been doing random running and skiing.

I haven't done a Top 10 List in a while and have some thoughts kicking around my head. Any requests out there?

Here's a cool picture of the Rideau Canal that's on both my Bread and Butter run as well as Jeff's Urban training course from the past O-Fest.

And here's another one showing the former downtown train station that is now the National Conference Building:

Under the Liberal the Conference centre was to be handed over to become the National Sports Hall of Fame. Except, the building has serious structural issues and would have costs a fortune to fix. So, Sports Federation turned it down and the Feds have barely done any work, but proclaimed it good to go.

While it would have been lovely to arrive into Ottawa along the canal on a train, I'm glad the tracks are gone. Too bad they moved the station to the middle of nowhere, a happier medium could have been found.

Skate ski at night from P7 along Ridge. Took forever to get my car going as it was frozen into the parking spot.

Super super super fast snow. I'm still using rock skis that are way too soft.

My skate boots might be too big. Anyone a size 11-ish need boots?
