Yet another training day that has boosted a leery morale. I decided on a trail run in my inov8's and headed up Howard Gnesen and went on the usual course until taking the Superior Hiking Trail over to Bagley Nature Center(a.k.a. rock hilll) for a loop and then returning to Hartley on the same as I left the park. I've been taking splits @ checkpoints along the way and they've been steady w/my RPE going down. Very comfortable weather again as the sun was out in force and the area received an inch of dry snow to whiten everything like it should be. The forecast according to the weather man looks to have the mercury fall for the Northwoods Snowshoe Champs next weekend though. Oh well, at least there'll be a SNOW(shoe) race!!!

I felt so good that I wanted to make sure Jen got out as she really wants and likes to once she's dressed. We got her a new Sporthill Pant from the DRC and she is now ready for anything. I wanted her to see what skiing under the lights @ Lester Park is all about and the conditions were great!! Nice firm tracks were set for classic and our wax choice had us kickin' it up! Her only fall came on the final hill bringin' it in to the lot. She wasn't letting that one go very easy(reminds me of a certain tough critic on himself). That's what has us coming back for more...
