Good Morning! I am already at the gym/work so I thought I would get things started. After work I will be heading to bootcamp.

Chilly morning (-31 WC -36) for a nice 14K. Jupiter was bright enough to see even without my glasses.

Beautiful morning here. It was -8 and snowing, with about 10cm of new snow on the ground, so the dog and I headed for our favourite trails.
Keep on rolling, just a mile to go. Keep on rolling my old buddy, you're moving much too slow.

Always TGIF!!! The first four days of this week were super high stress at work, but today looks to be much calmer, thank goodness. I had planned to run this morning but my foot felt a little "off", and I was seeing my treatment provider for a 9:00 a.m. appointment, so I decided to spend some time on the elliptical instead. Maybe a little over cautious but I'd rather be paranoid than re-injured. Anyway, the ART etc. hurt, but in a good way (as we all know). Best of all, my tendon appears to be healed, feels very smooth with almost no scar tissue in the area, and I am supposed to keep increasing my mileage. Cautiously, and always with a warmup before and icing after, but definitely keep moving forward. So, next run I'm going to do 12 km instead of 10 km. :)

Have a great weekend, everyone - happy running!

long run day - there was some snow overnight, so parts of the run were very slow, but they had cleared one 2-3km section of the canal, so i repeated that a couple times to enjoy the half decent footing. 19km done - longest since army run!
