trail 1:34:29 [1]
A trail "run" where I walked the downhills, ran the uphills and split the flats. Tried to do whatever would keep the outing fun. Got pretty cold near the end - should have tried to get out a little earlier. I really am lucky to have this park with the miles of trails right in my backyard.

running 40:31 [3]
Three miles on the drive at 10:30 pace plus the 9 minutes to get down. Took it nice and easy - the goal being to enjoy myself.
Really pretty down there today - lots of ice all over the place reflecting the sun, the creek completely frozen over in places which doesn't happen very often.

hiking 18:21 [1]
Walked home a round about way through the woods looking for the big pits I know are there; only found one - can't remember where the others are.

running 1:04:27 [3]
TNT - the die hards
Very cold night so didn't want to use distance as a gauge and didn't want anyone to feel compelled to go at my pace (while safe enough, it would be a little foolish to run alone at night in the park) so convinced everyone to do hill repeats instead. So about 15 minutes to get to the covered bridge, ran the hill for 30 minutes, and then home. Did 6 hills in 30 minutes - walked the first one to warm up, then ran progressively further up the hill each of the next 5. The guys did more. Nothing spectacular but a good workout for me. Short of breath on the jog on the drive back home and we weren't going particularly fast.

Note
For the first time I can remember, we didn't see a soul the whole time we were in the park. I imagine anyone seeing our headlamps going up and down the hill would have had a hard time trying to figure out what was going on. I really enjoyed this workout because I had company but no pressure to do any more than I wanted. Interesting that last year I remember being glad that I was running with others because it was pushing me to do more and this year I sometimes don't like running with others because it pushes me to do more.

Yoga/Pilates 1:00:00 [1]
An easier session with mostly stretching and not much strength. Arms are sore - fell a couple of times on Saturday so I expect that's why.
