I did slow down to pick up trash, picked up two and a half grocery bags full. Part of my loop goes along the lake shore and people go down there, drink beer, and leave their trash. I hate looking at trash, and stooping down to pick it up with a pack on is good exercise, it's like doing a squat every 50 feet, it's a win/win.

4 miles on the trails with Tiny E- I've found getting out after a hard trip is the very best medicine to help with inflammation and soreness

Thanks man. I like to think that when people see me down there picking up trash, they're less likely to leave theirs there. Cigarette smokers are the worst, they think the world is their ashtray. Upper body at the gym for me today, cardio on tap for tomorrow.

24 mile overnighter on the XC skis this weekend. Tough trail breaking going in/up on Saturday. Only took about 4 hours to come back out yesterday though.

Dang, you skiiers and snowshoers make me feel like a piker. Which is a good thing.
30 minutes intervals on stairs, followed by 30 at a steady pace on the bike. 700 calories, according to the machines.

packing up for another snowshoe trip tomorrow- this time in the Elkhorn Mountains well so much for that- we're getting 15-20 mph winds in town, it's double that in the Elkhorns- 30-40 mph winds (gusts higher) kind of takes the fun out of it strength train this morning squats & bench 3/3/3+/10 @ 70/80/90/70% of 1RM pullups 3x11 dips 3x30 core

You slacked off by going to the gym? You'll never get in shape that way.

Upper body in the gym for me today. One of the trainers is a power-lifter, he was dead-lifting over 500. The barbell was bending pretty good, I was tempted to take a photo with my cell phone, post it here and tell you guys it was me in action.

I had a buddy in college that could really deadlift; always impressed to see the bar bending- one time he broke the weight belt he was wearing and they are usually pretty stout leather

Cardio in the gym for me today, 25 mins of intervals on the self-propelled treadmill, then 25 at a steady aerobic pace on the bike.
I'm starting to like the self-propelled treadmill. Ours are shaped like a banana, and if you set the resistance high and get right up on the front, it's pretty steep and you can mimic going up a steep slope on the balls of your feet, gets a good load on the calf muscles.
Of course, nothing is as good as the real thing, but it's pretty good, and you can't do that on a stair machine.
