5.5 miles on snowy trails; Tiny Elvis has been going out earlier with my wife as she has the week off

Tore the shoulders up today. Did a little on the biceps.

Probably go heavy on the back tomorrow and really hit biceps hard Saturday.

Heading to Mexico in a week so have to hit it for the next week. Gotta get my beach body on.

a balmy 17 degrees this evening- Tiny E and I got 3.5 miles in

looks like we’re in for some really rough weather- highs in the single digits with a foot of snow or more- wish I was heading to Mexico

I'm sitting in SeaTac, headed home from Palm Springs visiting my mom. It was nice down there but I'm looking forward to getting back in control of what I eat and when/how I exercise. I can resist things like chips...... at the grocery store. In the pantry, not so much.

Looks like tomorrow will be our nicest day for the next week. Looks like around 0 at night and several single digit days. Be nice to be in that 80 degree stuff for sure.

5-ish mile on snowshoes, frigid day

another 5-ish miles on snowshoes

1933 miles for the year, pretty happy with that

Walked 6 miles yesterday

We came terrifyingly close to losing our dog last night. She came with me about 9 pm on a beer run out to my shop. When I came out, someone had set off some aerial fireworks (hey, it's midnight somewhere!). She's never had any trouble with that so I didn't really think twice. Went inside. To shorten the story, it took us about 1.5 hours to find her. She'd fallen into our creek about 1/4 mile from the house. It's got steep clay cutbank sides; she couldn't get out. It was below freezing out.

We'd already been trying hard for that 1.5 hours to find her. We finally realized we could sometimes hear the faintest possible cries, so faint we weren't believing our ears. Don't know how much longer she could have lasted; she was half submerged and freezing. Looked like a drowned skunk. But------ happy ending, so HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Wow Jeff! So glad you found her
