Sunny Skies

I just got an email from my girlfriend Ali telling me that she is heading out for a run! She is still a student - and therefore has time during daylight hours to do fun things like run! It is a gorgeous bluebird day - and I am jealous!

However, I have to remind myself that I too got my fresh air and exercise today - at 5:45am on my xc skis! Natalie, Chaughan, Jane and myself checked out the ski trails at Mooney's Bay. They are great - fun loops - super close to home - and even a little hill that I climbed up and managed to get a few 'powder tele-turns' in!! So even though I am now on coffee #7 of the day and had a headlamp on this morning - it was still a treat to have a big dose of fresh air before work today!

Coming up: a busy weekend of madness - schedule as follows:
Friday Night: drink wine with girlfriend

Saturday: attempt the 10k 'Hilly Course' of the madtrapper snowshoe race. Maybe the 5k if I chicken out as I have never run on snowshoes before.

Saturday Night: More wine and Cranium Showdown with Michael and friends

Sunday Morning: Hypothermic Half Marathon at the experimental farm (Note: my running mileage since IMC is about 31km total!!!)

Sunday Afternoon: EAT and NAP!!

So stay tuned for race reports and photos!
