Rollerskiing 1:46:51 15.81 mi (6:45 / mi) +68m 6:40 / mi
ahr:126 max:149
Long rollerski, some skating, some no poles, some double pole. Around Ottawa Hills, first my side of Bancroft than the other side, working my way to Wildwood, where I did a loop of the paved path and then home. A good loop. Read Boden Middle map, plus the long final from Trondheim (I didn't do, was cheering on Sam + Sandra!) and a map from the relay we did after Tio Mila.
And shoulder. So it freaked out twice and became really painful to do much of anything with, but those episodes subsided after a few tens of seconds - a minute. Whatever is up isn't repeatable. When the pain sets in, lots of different motions *really* hurt, the same motions don't hurt at other times. Hm.

TED talks on democracy and being a foster child, in the rainy rain.

ahr:157 max:171
Tempo times, 2 x 15 in Wildwood. One trail does kinda roll over some old sand dunes or something, it's nice. Felt pretty good, but Garmin definitely doesn't pick up the right pace on trail type stuff.
TED talks on Mozilla's Popcorn project (making web video more interactive) and then a fun one on 8 year-olds being involved in science through treating it like a game and coming up with a real scientific question, experiment and result.

Warm up on the elliptical, sans arms again to be nice to shoulder.
Running 39:37 4.2 mi (9:26 / mi)

Toledo Hill Workout
Tried one of the blue-screen treadmills. I think I'm more a fan of the treadmill itself than the yellow ones in the middle, but the first I tried had a broken incline indicator and the second one I managed to hit the 'Emergency Off' in my very first interval, frustrating!!
Anyways, 18 min hard, 3 x (3 x (2 min on w/ 1 min off), 2 min off). The intervals were at incline setting 11.0 and speed 7.0. Were pretty hard, definitely done by the last one!

Rollerskiing 53:28 7.72 mi (6:56 / mi) +29m 6:51 / mi
ahr:126 max:152
Neighborhood rxc, all sans poles because my shoulder is still acting up. Sharp pains kinda randomly, like something catches and then the whole joint doesn't want to do anything. But it didn't freak out as much as past days just typing/mousing at my desk, so perhaps on the mend... I hope anyways! I'll keep babying it, but not really worry until it's > 1wk. Started on Monday.
Read Boden map of Men's relay and PEEC sprint from NAOCs. Tried to think fiesty sprint thoughts (get there faster!) while reading sprint map.

ahr:136 max:175
Hmmm, HRM is starting to act up weird at the beginning of workouts- not picking up signal quickly, and then a period of too-high before settling into reality... possibly new-battery time yet again, suppose it's been awhile.
Anyways, delayed at work, by chats with boss and officemate on officemate's upcoming paper, so I knew I didn't have full daylight to scoot around in Wildwood and back. So out there on the bike path, played around until dark, then abandoned the woods and headed home in the dark on roads, winding my way through the ritzy neighboorhoods of Ottawa Hills. Some cool light shows on display!
Lunch at work featured our dept holiday party. Games included ID that spectral lamp (I only got H, missed Ne and Hg) and math equation bingo, let the mightiest nerd win!!

A little scoot over to my eye doctor appointment - the mail goal was avoiding having to drive home with eyes dilated, but hey, getting a workout in = good bonus!
Achilles both a bit sorer than I expected, but everything else, including hammies felt fine!
Eyes are slightly worse apparently, +1.5 x 2 now. And am getting new glasses for the first time in ages, psyched!

And back. I forgot to mention there was a really helpful cut through an overgrown meadow to get to the medical building from the bike path, woo!

Note
Just sorted out winter racing plans. Here there and everywhere! Ski-o hopefully in VT, OH *and* MN, as well as France, Switzerland and then Kazakhstan. Ski marathons- North American Vasa (MI), City of Lakes (MN), American Birkie (WI). And the odd normal ski race. Excited. Now please let it snow enough that I can go ski next weekend!!!

Rollerskiing 1:12:35 9.79 mi (7:25 / mi) +26m 7:21 / mi
ahr:123 max:153
Out of work a bit early so I could head out in the daylight. Just a distance double pole, but whoa, went the *other* way out at Wildwood, not sure why it took me so long to change up the routine...
Legs still tired, but I bet they'll feel fine tomorrow, left hammie doesn't seem too upset anymore! Right shoulder is kinda unhappy though, perhaps slept on it funny.
Read a map from snowy New Year's Eve training with Sergei, Balter, Boris 2 years ago, or maybe 3? And then a Compass Sport cup on Sallowvallets.
