Friday, Jan. 13:

45 minute spin class, up and down, as this teacher likes to teach it -- and the whiteout out-of-doors afterward, when it had only been raining upon my arrival, and the scary drive home.

1/12: rest day
1/13: NRLW S1W2B, 25 min wog (20 mins 2:30::2:30). It was so snowy/icy that I had to run super-slow, so I don't even know if I really got my heart rate up much. Oh well, I probably burned calories just being outside in that weather.

Saturday, Jan. 14th:

60 minutes beginner Kripalu yoga class
60 minutes arc trainer, resistance at nine, hill interval

The gym was really crowded, despite the sloppy roads. Everyone must have been glad to move around & escape from being cooped up, and also, must have come at a later time than usual, after having to blow out or shovel out their driveways. I think our snow total will be something like 10 inches.

We'e quite lucky here in Toronto re snow. Since we are right on the lake and in a bit of a bowl a lot of it passes over us. Most of it goes slightly north to Barrie and Collingwood (where the ski hills are). I think eastern cities in the "snow belt" in the US include Syracuse, Rochester, and Buffalo?

Sunday, Jan. 15th:

15 minutes Stairmaster, aerobic intervals, set at seven, and this was a decent pace, perhaps even a bit slow, just enough to warm me up & make me sweat
60 minutes chest, shoulders and triceps with weights
60 minutes yoga
45 minutes elliptical, 30 of it backward, resistance at eight, hill intervals, bouncy-jouncy & didn't feel like much of a workout

A note to myself: Do not do this particular vinyasa yoga class AFTER an hour of bench presses and pushups. I simply could not hold downward dog pose. My arms were finished for the day. My beginning Kripalu yoga class is much lighter and more like a stretching session. That one takes place at the yoga studio, where they teach a completely different kind of yoga than at the gym. That would have been okay to do after lifting. But not the vinyasa class taught by the ex-dancer. Oh, and next time I may donate a space heater to the gym's yoga class. Since it was just four degrees outside, the classroom was in the low 50s. The tips of my toes got numb because I had to take my socks off, as they made my feet slip on the mat.

Dagmar, I'm living in a small town just northwest of Syracuse, well within the snow belt. Actually, it gets more snow than Syracuse because it's very near Oswego County. We're a half-hour drive from the shore of Lake Ontario. Should I wave in your general direction next time up I'm up at the harbor with my binoculars, looking out on the lake and bay for loons, scoters, goldeneye, buffleheads and oldsquaw, and perhaps for a snowy owl or a peregrine falcon?

saef face west and away! I'll wave toward the east! I'm down at the shore 8 a.m. - 4 p.m. weekdays and 11-noon weekends.

Monday, Jan 16th:

45 minute spin class, quite tough, as Monday's always are, with me not stretching as much as usual afterward because I had to get home & pack for a trip downstate.
