    Re: The Get fit club!

    On Sunday I ran leg 4 of this 5-person relay:
    http://www.grizzlyevents.ca/Grizzly_Canmore.php


    Toughest 7km I've done; 273m elevation gain to an altitude of over 1,500m. Temperature of 3 deg. C with a bit of snow in the higher elevations. Lot's of fun though. I think our team placed 53d out of 189 teams (still waiting for the official times to be posted).

    Sounds both fun and slightly brutal Schmenke. Those types of races are usually as much the mental as the physical, but seem very interesting.


    I've been slacking badly this month and barely got on the bike. I have to make some time and give myself a kick in the butt.

    I have been seriously slacking as well, just hate (hate!) going out when it's cold never mind going out on the bike Still been doing quite a lot of tennis so just need to spend a bit more time in the gym, would like to go for a swim before work but I just can't get up in the morning early enough as it is
    If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off!

    Same here. My motivation has taken a big knock for reasons I won't go into and I can't be bothered most days. Cold weather doesn't bother me, got a good base layer which helps a lot.
    You lot still here?!

    Same same. My motivation is well down at the moment. Partly health reasons and partly due to the weather.

    Cold weather is the best time. No sweat, a nice warm wool sweater, and far fewer people out on the trails.

    We had a lot of rain for a week or so, but it's not cold at all yet. For the most part I was just being lazy and lacking motivation. I finally broke that string lately when I decided I would ride in crappy weather. To my surprise the light rain stopped as I started my ride.

    Might go knock out another 15 or so today. I always feel better if I get a ride in.

    I agree. It's quite enjoyable running right now. Mind you, it's not yet -15 and snowing

    Re: The Get fit club!

    I've petty much skipped cycling too. Only one commute this week, I did put on new reflector tapes into rims, so I guess it's related to working out.
