M – hike 1.5 hours along the Colorado River with Dad, Mama, & Ren (oh and Bandit!)
Tu – REST. fly through Vegas and Seattle and use copious amounts of disinfecting wipes…blissfully unaware until tomorrow that there are no more disinfecting wipes in all the world…
W – 4 easy road miles (9:46 pace) around the neighborhood with my beloved. Sunny and surprisingly warm – shorts weather.
30 minutes of mobility work.
Th – REST. Debilitating sinus pain and pressure, a sign that spring is on its way. Killed me to not run today, but I just could not do it. Sports massage @ https://www.actiondynamix.org/
F – 5 mile SOS road run – general aerobic/speed workout: 10 x 100m @ 6:15 minute mile pace + 10 x 10 second hill sprints.
Ski (downhill) Mt Bachelor – snow conditions pretty OK. Little did I know that access to the resort would be going the way of disinfecting wipes…mountain closed down effective Sunday.
Sa – 6 easy trail miles @ 10:43 pace – out and back to Shevlin park in somewhat heavy snow in the air but perfect conditions on the trail.
climb @ https://bendrockgym.com/ Can’t help but wonder if the gym climbing days are numbered too…
Su – 5 easy trail miles (didn’t track pace or time) along neighborhood paths in 20 degree temps (feels like 10 degrees according to the weather channel! realized after the run that my Packers beanie + wool hoody = looking like a yard gnome). A beautiful, grateful run with fun snowy terrain and no one around…tried to really focus on gratitude and not whining about not skiing and events getting canceled and anxiety about people suffering)
Total miles run: 20
Meditated 7 out of 7 days
