Friday, Dec. 28...

4 miles of cross country skiing on the railtrail.  Euclid (who names these things anyway?) dropped about 8 inches of snow locally, our first major storm of the year.

The railtrail is open to the public, including snowmobilers, so the skiing wasn't perfect.  Snowmobiles churn up the snow and mix it in with the loose gravel underneath making it less than perfect for skiing.  The other side of the coin is the packed snow left by snowmobiles is much better for skiing, so no complaints from me for the brown snow they leave behind.  As we get more storms and the snow deepens, this little inconvenience goes away. 

At any rate, it was my first outing of the year and a nice workout.

Ray, nice workout yesterday. Good for you!

My sore foot's still sore, but ever-so-slowly getting better.

You're a busy man, that high performance driving class must have been something.

I went dashing through the snow today, 3 miles on the railtrail.  Real loose footing, so I'm going to try the highway tomorrow. 

Looks like Dark Horse has given us the slip Ray, so it's down to just the two of us.  I'll keep posting for a while, maybe someone else will jump in.

Happy New Year!
