Skiing and Snowshoeing - It Is Time!

I've been out for a couple of short ski trips on the local trails. That was before this recent addition of snow, so conditions should be much improved. It should also be good for snowshoeing.". . . skiers can burn as many as six hundred to nine hund…

I've been out and done 3k on my old traditional skis. Not quite ideal conditions for the skate skis. Any exercise you can do is good. You can see many people bundled up and going for walks around town. It may be cool when you start, but you will pro…

Great advice Paul! the cold has been a real issue here as well. I think treadmills are getting a good work out as well this time of year! Mike

It's only cold.

Burrrr... it's just too cold to run my usual distance. Aw... what's the point in running at all then? Because, a short run is still better than no run. And besides, who says it has to be just a regular run. Do less distance but change it up and make…

Looks like I showed up too late to make it in the picture. A good run though, even if I did go a much shorter distance than everyone else. Snow enough to ski now, so those interested can join me to do that once in a while too - if you don't mind goi…

Had To Go!

No... I'm not referring to taking a pee, although getting splashed in the crotch with super cooled salted road water does illicit certain feelings, but the run I had to take tonight. It is against my nature to cancel a run due to weather, or in this case road conditions, but the decision to do so was the right one tonight. The location for the hill repeats was extremely slippery under foot, risking unnecessary injury. I hate being defeated by the weather! Last week Tracy and I went to the gym (m… Continue

This session will take place next Tuesday.
