Skating - canal 1:10:00 [1]
Perfect weather for my first canal skate. The ice had some rough spots and a section was closed but I had fun working on the skate-O for the SE end. Chatted to two local vendors about sponsoring and/or providing answers to clues. They thought it would be fun but they can't confirm when they will be open or have the staff to respond to enquiries. So will have to stick to visual clues.

Walking 1:12:00 [1]
Nice walk along the canal to the end of the skateway. Ice looked ok, so I will try it out in the morning before the forecasted thaw.

Walking 35:00 [1]
Wanted to skate but the canal was not in great shape and covered in snow. So I walked the fifth ave. section and updated the map.
Stationary Bike 35:00 [2]
Lost track of time with the music pumping through the headphones. Hip was sore but I didn't stop. Tired tonight.

Walking 58:00 [1]
First time I completed the 5k Revelstoke look since the injection. Took it relatively easy, hip is stiff but ok. Shovelled the bit of snow off 3 driveways and a good stretch afterwards. Saw 161 for the first time since Xmas.

Walking 40:00 [1]
Short walk to stretch my legs. Was mild and traffic free until some guy nearly ran me over at the last intersection. I was bracing to leap up onto his hood when he finally noticed me.
Will walk in the daylight from now on.

Walking 38:00 [1]
Hip still sore form Friday's injection so I took it easy and doubled back half way around Revelstoke. Nice and mild, wished I could have done more.
Good stretch and strength afterwards.

Note
Another hyaluronic acid injection today. So too sore for any "workout".

Walking 1:20:00 [1]
Started off fairly briskly but the right adductor was really sore so I had to slow down. The 70 minute loop took 10 minutes longer. Good stretch afterwards. Feels ok this morning.

XC Skiing 50:00 [2]
Short but beautiful ski at Nakkertok with Mumsey. Hip really bothered me until I warmed up. Could have done more but my back will be sore enough from the double-poling. Waxing was variable between the woods and the bright sunshine-y areas.

Walking 57:00 [2]
Revelstoke loop in the cold wind. Bundled up well so it was only unpleasant straight into the wind. Very stiff tonight.
Monday Jan 18, 2016 #
Stationary Bike 45:00 [3]
Good spin on a very cold day. Thought of a ski but the wind-chill was -25.

Walking 57:00 [2]
Good brisk walk around Revelstoke in the soft snow. The poor footing was hard on the hip and later I felt a strong spasm during dinner. Hadn't had one like that in a long time. Good stretch but I guess I need to do more for the adductors.
Friday Jan 15, 2016 #
Walking 20:00 [1]
Only found time for a short walk and a good stretch. Eating too much.

Walking 58:00 [2]
After 2 days of slacking off except for a few stretches and a walk to the store, I tried to keep a steady brisk pace throughout. worked ok except for a couple of 1 minute slow-downs to ease the cramps.
Monday Jan 11, 2016 #
Walking 58:00 [2]
Kept a good longish stride throughout. Good stretch afterwards. Very icy on sidewalks so I kept to the roads.
Sunday Jan 10, 2016 #
Walking 56:00 [1]
Brisk walk around Revelstoke. Hip was ok. Needed a longer stretch as I was very stiff later in the evening.
Friday Jan 8, 2016 #
Walking 56:00 [2]
A good brisk 56 minute Revelstoke loop. Then a 20 minute warm-down to the grocery store. : )
Wednesday Jan 6, 2016 #
Walking 58:00 [1]
Tried to keep it brisk. Worked ok until the last 10 minutes when I started to stiffen up. Should have worn the running shoes. The brisk walk on hard soles hurts the shins and back.

Walking 58:00 [2]
Cold, brisk walk around Revelstoke. Hip was starting to ache by the end - but not too bad. Good stretch afterwards.
Monday Jan 4, 2016 #
Walking 25:00 [1]
Planned an hour walk but I was frozen in 20 minutes in the windy -18C weather. Considered going out again, but I didn't.

Stationary Bike 40:00 [2]
Steady pace spin listening to music. Need to stack up some new CDs.
Should have skied earlier - too cold now. Adductors seem Ok. Will ski on Tues.

Walking 1:06:00 [1]
reasonably brisk walk around Revelstoke loop. Back was quite sore this morning but it loosened up during the day. It felt OK during walk and the adductors held out. Don't know if I am ready for another ski though. Maybe a gentle ski at Mooney's tomorrow.
Good stretch after the walk and some upper body strength work.

XC Skiing 40:00 [2]
Quick ski at Mooney's Bay on the no-wax skis. The skis worked well but my quads complained from the start. Now - a few hours later - I am really stiff in my back and adductors. I really didn't ski that hard!
