Back to Normal

A full week of work...

Monday
  • Ran 7 at lunch w/ Todd, Joe, JVD and Eric. Tough run when part of your energy goes into slipping.

  • Holly and Lilly played Trouble after dinner and Lilly won! We all played tag.

  • I rode a half hour on the rollers - Holly rode an hour on the trainer.

  • Boo and I went for a short walk. We saw Jeff and he asked why we left the dock in the river. Uh-oh...

Tuesday
  • Sledding w/ Lilly and the neighbor kids. After putting the hay bale in front of the pole at he bottom of the hill, the kids tried to hit it.

  • Holly did spin at Trailhead

  • 1.5 hrs on the elliptical to the 2nd "half" of the Fellowship of the Ring.

Wednesday
  • Reading Buddy

  • Swim class. Lilly took a little while to get used to her new teacher so I cut my swimming short and watched her class. She's the only kid signed up for this time slot so 1:1 instruction may be a little weird for her too.

  • Holly went skiing with her friends.

  • An hour on the elliptical to the 3rd "half" of The Fellowship of the Ring

Thursday
  • 7 mile run at lunch. Just me and JVD (one of the best masters runners in the state). Fairly hard run. :)

  • Lilly's gymnastics class.

  • Skiing at Elm Creek with Bernie, Neil and JayT. Neil had the idea of racing each other with handicaps. I was to do 5 laps, Neil and JayT 4, and Bernie 3. We all were cooked afterwards.

Friday
  • The snow that was predicted to go just north of us missed us to the south. Darn.

  • Holly and I watched Casino Royale while working out. She rode the trainer for the entire 2hr movie while I did the rollers for half and the elliptical for half.

Saturday
  • Skied with Neil, Bernie, Larry and Tony. We did two loops of the multi-use trail (the "outer" outer loop) at Elm Creek. Coffee afterwards at Hudy's.

  • Holly, Lilly and I went ice skating. Lilly is getting better but looses interest quickly.

Sunday
  • Holly skied the multi-use and outer loop at Elm Creek. Great skiing after a couple inches of light snow.

  • A quick shovel job.

  • Coffee at Avant Garden espresso bar in Anoka



  • A trip to Minnesota Children's Museum
