Snow orienteering in Surebridge. Drew a wildly optimistic course. Did a bit over half of the controls. Messed up one badly enough that I followed my footsteps backwards (easy in a foot of snow) to the last place I thought I knew where I was (I did, to within 20 metres, but they made all the difference).

No campass. Fell often.

For those who believe in the wonders of Apple...
Yesterday I had a crash/restart, two WindowServer crashes (all applications close, loss of data) and this morning a kernel panic (crash).
All this on a MacbookPro, which has had the display assembly, logic board (twice) and RAM replaced in four repair jobs. Grrrrrrrrrr.

running 28:00 [3]

up around Pace U Law campus, just for fun.

slept:8.0

woke up again at 5, maybe it's some residual jetlag, although I doubt it... but I went to bed at 11 and got up at 8, so feeling better.

Booked flights for Anza Borrego, going to be a tough weekend - 6am flight with a stopover to Orange County, on the 14th, then nonstop overnight back from San Diego and straight in to work on the Tuesday...

running 43:40 [3]

Jog around Silver Lake with Anna, the snow was crunchy. Fresh snow due tomorrow.

Frustrating news today. Hopefully something good can come of it.

aerobic (bike/other) 30 [1]

strength 20 [3]
slept:6.5

did a bit of strength and stretching after the bike... was listening to radiolab sped up to "2x" on the ipod, although it seems like it wasn't quite... 20s of podcast taking about 12 seconds... worked fine anyhow, although the sound quality was a bit dodge.

just over eight hours in my new bed, woke up a bit after five, possibly due to being cold... also dehydrated, I think I need to raise the humidity level in the apartment. And get a curtain perhaps. And learn sentences write.

Saxon Woods, my first time there. Night orienteering with a bit of snow on the ground, just enough to provide a bit of cushioning.

Tricky enough area, Anna was navigating as we only had the one map between us, with me shadowing more or less. Good fun, but we weren't going fast enough for me to stay warm, so good thing we did a km and a bit at the end of pure running. Out for 1h41 total.

jaysus anna nearly has me broken, the beast

Registered for Anza Borrego. Now I need shorts, flights and a new camera.

spiked:8/8c slept:8.0

Went for my first run on Blue Mtn in many years. Ran an old Brown course I picked up somewhere. Slowly.

It was nice out, sunny with a couple of inches of snow left. The ice was just thick enough to creak but not break. No issues with runnability. Still, Ross and Jordan et al will have to train well to break 7 minutes per km in the longggggg :)

New Year's Resolutions... record how much sleep I get, and sleep more, and do some exercise every day this month.

slept:7.0

Took my new Meindls for a walk around Cranberry Lake Preserve. Temperatures must be up, because I had to doff the hat and coat and unzip the hoodie and unbutton the shirt...

The map could do with being redone, as suspected.
