Great day for a ski. Sunny and warm, but there was a cold wind when I started that mostly dropped out while underway. I did a pretty good time, considering my lack of skiing, or running, in the pas... read more

great Scouting Trip 3.6 km 00:39 17:35 pace
Walked up to the second bog to check on the conditions for c-c skiing. Some icy sections, with the occasional pebble or rock in the path, but pretty good, especially once past the sawdust pit. Quit... read more

great Bottom Brook Bridge Plus 16.12 km 01:03 9.6mph pace
We went several weeks without seeing the sun, while having lots of wet stuff falling, so the trail was fairly wet and muddy. Wish I had more time for the ride, but so much to get done around the ho... read more

great Bottom Brook Bridge 16.07 km 01:03 9.5mph pace
There was a strong SE wind, but the trees on the trail blocked it most of the way. Temperature was about 17C, but felt colder when exposed to the wind. Puddles are no bigger lately, despite all the... read more

Left with no goal in mind other than to be home in time for supper. Light wind, about 22C, and sunny. At one point I had butterflies around me like dolphins do to a boat. Enjoyed the ride so much I... read more

great A nice evening for a walk. 3.5 km 00:35 15:52 pace
We went to visit friends for tea and walked instead of driving. At about 8C, it was just about the right temperature for me, but too cold for Roxanne. We maintained a pretty steady pace, doing bett... read more

good Warm-up and Cool-down runs 3.4 km 00:22 10:23 pace
Preparing for and returning from the hill session. The last 2 minutes of the warm up run was a long uphill stretch. Time and distance combined.
