We went snowshoeing yesterday in fresh powder about 3 feet deep. It was incredible how much harder it is breaking trail on the way in, compared to coming back. The views of the ski resort and surrounding mountains was awesome. I worked up quite a sweat and used a lot of different muscles. It was a refreshing break in my base training. The snow continues to pile up and my back has gotten a workout also.
I saw a women in her mid-50's jogging along the icy road this morning. Quite impressive as she was running up hill at about 5,000ft elevation and the temp was 25 degrees. She made me feel guilty for taking a holiday break. She was wearing some black rubber studs over running shoes, and was getting pretty good traction. I will have to add a pair of those to my Christmas list.
I hope to do an indoor 90 min Brick tomorrow.
Cheers
