How's This For A Blog Post





I wish I had more time to blog but I can't believe how busy I have been this week!
Skate skied in The Callahan for 2hr today and saw numbers on my heart rate monitor that I didn't know existed!

6am road ride tomorrow and then a commute to North Van for work. I figure the 90 min bike ride should ease my aggressiveness on the highway...at least I hope that's the case cause I am already dreading this drive.

Proper blog postings to follow again soon, promise.

Quickie






I'm not one to complain, at least not THAT much, and this shouldn't be taken as complaining, more a point worth mentioning...I am still getting tingly toes from the 'winter' adventure race! I just wasn't built for the cold...well I may have been at one point in time, but frostbite is not something you ever seem to fully recover from.

Anyways, winter is too much fun to let a little thing like numb feet stand in the way! I rounded up three friends for another pre-work ski tour this morning. Up at 5:30am, out the door for 6:00am, pick everyone up and at the parking lot for 6:50am, about 1.5hr skinning up and 35 minutes back down, with two dogs running hard to keep us in sight the entire time. Roxy hasn't moved a total of one square meter in the twelve hours since then!

I was still at work in time to open for 10am and put in my eight hours. After work I headed to the gym with a friend for some strength - core work. All in all, a solid day...I even managed to get my Christmas presents in the mail for my family back in Newfoundland. They might just make it on time this year, which would be a first for me!
