Back to Boot Camp

It has been three weeks now of Boot Camp, and I am starting to loosen up. After missing more than a month while I was in Australia, things were just not up to speed.

This is the base phase for building up for next years race season, both on the water and off.

I think I am going to be a little more focused on running, than paddling this season. At least that is how I feel right now. We will see once we hit March, who knows.

I am going to go to Canmas this year in Regina, so that is something to train for.

1st Spin Class

Today I decided to try a spin class.

There was much, pain, whining, groaning, and bitching, and once the warm up was over, then the real pain began.

There was not a single piece of clothing that was dry by the time I finished a hour later. Even though it was hard, I really enjoyed it. I am looking forward to next weeks class.

iPod Updates

Today I setup my iPod to make updates. So hopefully I will start up again with what I am doing for training.

Italy is less than four years away now, and counting.

Life after the Worlds Masters Games

My race season is finally over for this year.

It is time to reflect over the past year, and start planning for the upcoming race season, and beyond.

I have started a spreadsheet of all of the races for next year, for all of the sports I seem to be in to. i.e. Road running, Trail running, Surf Ski racing, Sprint Boat racing, etc.

This winter for training proposes, (ya right) I might take up Snow Shoe racing, since the mountains are already getting whiter and whiter. There is also a Tuesday night Cross Country ski race program on Cypress that looks really tempting.

Hopefully I will find the time to blog about my winter training, and some races I am planning to run in this winter. My blog was really lacking in content last year. I just couldn't find the time to write any updates. Now with things slowed down a touch, I think I can update it a little more frequently.
