Another couple of laps in the dark. I kind of like running in the dark. Looks like I should be thinking about a new pair of shoes.

Chilly but sunny. On the golf course at Delaware Park. Organized by GBTC. A small but enthusiastic field. Was running alone a lot of the time. Surface was rutted snow. Not bad, actually.

Walking to the gym. Took the train home. Train took 15 minutes less than the walk. So 35 minutes of walking saved $1 and only took a little longer and was good exercise. A win-win.

Ran an errand and then continued a walk for exercise. Chilly but sunny day. Wildlife spotted: arctic fox, river otter, spotted hyena, giraffe, tiger, vulture, bighorn sheep, reindeer. (I was at the zoo.)

Lots of snow overnight and the park road was still pretty icy in spots so had to run like a penguin. Nice at sunset though. Wore lots of reflective gear. Coldest run of the year so far at 22ยบ.

ahr:135 max:176 spiked:10/13c shoes: VJ Falcon

The Long event of the Ontario Championships. Had a better run than in the middle in the same terrain. Used the thumb compass but not sure if that made a difference. I just found it easier to read the map. Lost the most time on control 4 because I got on the wrong ridge. Nominal distance was 5.5 km. Pace = 16.9 min/km.

Lots of mistakes. Not really sure why. Pace = 21.08.

ahr:159 max:182 shoes: VJ Falcon

Started the watch late. Actual time was 19:45. Good enough for 4th of 7. One big goof. Ran right past control 8 without seeing it. I must have blinked at the wrong time. Probably wouldn't have made a difference in my placing. Nominal distance = 2.3 km. Pace = 8.6 min/km.
6 PM

Note

Dinner at Borealis which was excellent. Had the tomato soup and the fish tacos. (Pickerel from Lake Erie, they claimed.) Had a pint of the house lager.

Note
(rest day)

Drove to Guelph for the Ontario Champs. Almost didn't go because the power was out at our house but B insisted. Waze took me through interesting neighborhoods in Hamilton on the way up. It avoided the congestion on the 403. Stayed at the Staybridge Suites south of Guelph but very convenient to the meet sites. Had dinner at Buon Gusto in downtown Guelph which I can recommend. Enjoyed the Linguine Romantina and a glass of the house red.
