01282018 – Bike Trainer and Skiing

I did 40 minutes on the bike trainer watching some TED videos. I did some single leg pedaling mixed in. Those are hard by the way!

Then I did 2 rounds of 10 each of

Pushups

Situps

Squats

Hanging pulls.

During the kid’s ski lessons I went for a ski on some icy trails. The natural ski trails especially Skyline Trail was super icy and a few patches of grass showing. The man made snow loops were in great shape and I had a nice ski hitting 21 mph on one of the downhill!

The skyline from the Skyline trail!

01232018 – Ski and Shovel

This morning started the serious work of digging out from the 9-14 inches that we got.

After resting from that I went out for a ski on some of the South Wirth trails and accumulated just over 7k in about 70 minutes. The trails had been rolled but not tracked until on my way back. So I’m sure that added extra work to my classic skiing! It sure was beautiful though.

Then in the afternoon kids and I went with friends sledding and my phone roughly estimates that we walked 2.5 miles with at least half of that climbing and in deep snow!
