Big storm has shut everything down so I got to sleep in today.
Last night - yay me! 35 minutes of rowing at the gym. I have downloaded the itunes interval running mixes that have coaching built in…and I just up the effort whenever I am told. I thought it would feel very geeky but I [...]

47 minutes of walking at 4 mph in the bloody freezing rain last night. Actually, it was more like a mist and I didn’t realise how wet I was until I walked in the door and started dripping.
What would Canadians have to talk about if it wasn’t the weather? Loverboy calls me every night. Instead [...]

Damn I am tired of having to ADD to the weight ticker. This is ridiculous. I know EXACTLy what I need to do to change this trend and I am NOT doing it. Obviously a problem deep in my little brain I need to think through.
Well, I am heading out for another hike. Dog [...]

Yay me. A little over 2.6km in 40 minutes - if this little nike thingy is correct, that’s a pace of 4km/hour, not bad in snowshoes. I hiked around this small bay, with the dog bounding through snowdrifts. Then, one the way home, I did NOT a) stop for cappucino and biscotti, b) pick up [...]

I admit it - I wimped out tonight. It is cold, I am tired, and I promised Son #1 I would pay for pizza any night this week AND take him to the movies if he walked the dog. Yes, 23, and he is still open to blatant bribery.
Having him here is making it easier [...]

Despite the fact that there is a nasty snowstorm out there, I did 2.18 km in 33 minutes - dressed like the michelin tire mascot. I have this little nikeplus ipod pedemetre thingy and it is SO FRUSTRATING. Took me four days to make it work, and then tonight it seemed to only record 1/2 [...]

It is -20 today so I won’t be snowshoeing again. It did feel good to get out on the trail yesterday, although it was very cold. I go out to the edge of the lake and tramp around a big campground. I didn’t go onto the beach because the wind was whipping snow around in [...]

Lots of snow yesterday and it is a bright beautiful day. It won’t last - more snow is on the way, according to the weather report, but I am heading out to shovel my drive and if it is still nice I will go for a snowshoe hike with the dog, even though it is [...]

My new 24/7 hobby - loading my cds into itunes so I can then load them into my ipod, to work with my Nike imonitor….huh? What happened to tapes? Remember when cassettes were SO COOL and the Sony Walkman cost $300? Which, for the record, I DID not buy until was about $100…lol. Ohmigod, remember [...]
