Running 38:34 [2] 4.5 mi (8:34 / mi)
Even colder, so treadmill run today. Ran some faster paced bits, down to 7:35/mi at the fastest (for a two quarter-miles). Felt ok, nice to get legs moving a bit more. Had SI belt on.
Strength 6:00 [1]

XC skiing 1:03:58 [2] 8.07 mi (7:56 / mi) +199m 7:22 / mi
The warmest day at 7 degrees, so we went out skiing. Wore a down vest and double-hatted it and stayed happy and warm! Skated a bit faster than the day after Christmas! Really does feel fine to skate, which I am so thrilled by!
Tom skied pi miles, but unfortunately broke a pole. =(

More chilly times, bundled up and ran around the neighborhood. A double had seems to help a lot. Started to think about trying to run a bit faster.

Snowy family hike to Butternut Pond. Dad, me, Tom, Steph, Eric and Mark. We were planning on taking Sylvia, but we bundled her all up and then she fell asleep, so we left her home with my mom. I had big clunky boots, Tom had YakTraks on his Sambas, which turned out to not be super-warm.

Wahoo!! Codymonster recommended trying skate skiing and it was totally better than classic on the pelvis, didn't expect that! Also wore an SI belt to keep pelvis pulled together, so maybe that helped too. Great to get out and ski, kept going back and forth to ski together with Tom who was rocking my Grandma's fishscales.

Running 36:05 [1] 2.82 mi (12:48 / mi) +69m 11:54 / mi
We made the 6h20 drive from Rochester to Grantham, NH!! Sylvia was fine with the drive except for about 2 hours in when she got hungry and started crying like she *really* meant it - was hard because we were on the thruway couldn't pull off for awhile.
Anyways, woke up Christmas morning to a blizzard, so layered up (including YakTraks) and went out in it. Super slow because of traction/kicking slow, but nice to get the run in!

Woo, we made it into Rochester yesterday midday with no major mishaps! Biggest issue was a dirty diaper change on the redeye. But stewardess helpfully got the changing table down for me while table my hands were filled with baby + changing stuff.
Tom and I did a Grant Tour (GT) of Scottsville *together*- first run together in ages!

Jog around the neighborhood. Still so slow. But I don't think running, or at least jogging, hurts my injury really, so that's good. Compared to skiing, don't feel it at all running, unless I take a big step up or trip or something.

For a morning ski, we went to Trillium Lake and Tom, Sylvia and I skied the loop around the lake. Really beautiful views of Mt. Hood and amazing how quiet the ski places are on weekdays!!
Hiking 9:20 [1] 0.38 mi (24:33 / mi) +59m 16:34 / mi
Hiking back up the final, icy, long hill.
There was another snow baby in the parking lot who was protesting getting bundled up.

Wahoo! Sylvia meets snow!
We loaded up the car with skis, baby, baby stuff, guitar, food and stay-overnight-in-cabin stuff (=full car!) and went up to Mt. Hood. We got to Teacup Lake at around 3pm and went out for a little jaunt! I carried Sylvia in the Ergo, which was fine for the pace we were going.
Pelvis never had sharp pain skiing, but it let me know I was using the injured joint. So had to pretty much keep it at a shuffle.
Afterwards, stayed at Reed College ski cabin with other faculty (students have exams). Fun times!

Running 18:48 [1] 1.0 mi (18:48 / mi)
First super-duper easy jog with Sylvia in the BOB jogging stroller! She was in her infant car seat and I kept a close eye for too much head jostling or head slumping.
At the beginning, she struggled to try to find her thumbs when her hands were well covered with mittens. But the somniferous powers of the jogger won over and she was asleep about 14 minutes in!
Was nice that using the stroller enabled a run that I wouldn't otherwise have gotten in.
Also: Sylvia is 3 months old today!

Wow, went to a b-day party of a 1 year old. So many babies!! Sylvia was the tiniest, least able to even pretend to play with others. But she wasn't fussy, so all good!
Little joggeroo afterwards. Clear and cool here in Portland - not our normal winter weather!!

Strength 30:00 [1]
Mama/Baby yoga. Sylvia was sleeping in her carseat for the first bit, then woke up and was a pretty happy camper, needed feeding once and changing at the end. Good to see all the mamas+babies!

Strength 30:00 [1]
Pilates. Sylvia did ok- just one feeding session. She's starting to pay attention to the Skwish, which is fun! I'm being more careful modifying things that feel iffy on the injured pelvis.
Beforehand, interviewed our most recent job candidate while breastfeeding.That's just the way my+baby's schedule melded today...

Faster on the bike, slower on the elliptical today. Sylvia joined me at work for a webinar afterwards, on the super-cool recent findings of the neutron star/neutron star binary merger. Two diaper changes, two feedings and one short nap during it.
