| 24 degrees, sunny, clear and DRY! It doesn't get any better than this. 2.5 hours in and around beautiful Whatcom Falls. SLOOWWW. Off to the mountain now to enjoy an afternoon of euro style skiing (groomed runs) and some sunshine with the family.

| Early morning yoga, too early to run first, so I had to wait until about 4pm to go running. Worked all day in my basement studio, with no windows, and I think this really made me tired. I am not used to getting NO daylight for so long. If I am to use the basement more, I really need to get a window put in there! The run was a 50 minute workout with 3 miles at marathon pace in the middle. |

| We were supposed to get snow during the night, but, as usual, we didn't. I was looking forward to this morning's early long run in the snow. I started at 6:30, finished at 9:00, and went straight to yoga. I wasn't sure if this was a great idea, to go straight to yoga, but it worked out OK. I had absolutely no power left in my legs and was unable to jump up into handstand, but other than that, it was sort of reviving to do yoga right after a long run. The class is supposed to be 1.5 hours, but she kept us an extra 20 minutes! I am good and tired right now. |

| two hours and 15 minutes on the skate skis. I was supposed to do a race prep run today for my 5K tomorrow, but I screwed up and didn't sign up for my race tomorrow, so I don't get to run it. I guess I thought there would be day of race registration. I am disappointed, since I really have not met my 5K goal this winter, and I wanted one more chance to do it.
Skiing was fun, though! We have snow back locally, and its cold and sunny here - just perfect for me. I did sort of an interval workout on the skis, and went until I could hardly walk.
