Training Log Archive: Bash

Another nice family hike with the pooches. I've rested long enough to feel eager to train again - a good sign!

Hiked with 'Bent and the pups.

Slush run around Palgrave West with AdventureDog before kicking off 'Bent's Birthday Weekend by letting him cook one of my favourite dinners.

For anyone who used to use Picasa and wasn't satisfied with the automatic "upgrade" to Google Photos, SmugMug now makes it easy to import photos from Google Photos. I'm currently importing all the photos I'd ever posted on Attackpoint before last March when I made the switch - over 6,000 of them. I can't imagine that I'll ever change the links though - maybe for my major race reports.

'Bent joined me in tonight's class. Caron took it easy on him.

The forecast is calling for rain so if I wanted to enjoy the snow that fell overnight, I had to get out this morning. It wasn't pretty - the skiing, that is. Palgrave West forest, on the other hand, was *really* pretty. There was just enough snow to ski but not enough snow to ski back on the same track. It was slow going with waxless rock skis on sticky, wet snow - and it was wonderful. I met Crash Caylor skiing with her pooches Sadie and Skye, so we skied together and chatted for awhile.

Time includes some trail clearing. There were a few days with gusty winds this fall and if we don't clear the fallen branches now, they'll freeze to the ground and grab our skis in mid-winter.

Only one more week of R&R before I start training for real again. In the meantime, BazingaDog and I had a great hike in the forest before the snow started coming down. He is less than a week away from getting his License To Run after several months of limping followed by 12 weeks of post-surgical recovery. He is soooo ready.

Boot camp before grocery shopping. I guess that's called a "brick".

New C3 injury prevention class in Caledon East after a fruitful trip to Salomon Toronto.

BazingaDog and I hiked in the snow today! We didn't get enough to ski but it's great to see that Mother Nature still remembers how to make winter weather.
