Almost forgot. An hour shoveling and scraping at that damn driveway. But it counts.

15 barefoot minutes on the treadmill. Felt stiff and sore for the first half. Also… pulled the safety trigger by accident with about 15 seconds to go so… If I recall correctly:

15 barefoot but miserable minutes on the treadmill. Took 11 minutes to find something that even remotely resembled my stride and even that only lasted about 2 minutes. Never quite could find my feet, and my left leg was oddly sore throughout most of the run, too. Perhaps I over-did it with the skiing this weekend? Doubtful but… And on a sad side note, it’s been over a month since I was...

15 (barefoot (as usual)) minutes on the treadmill. Anything noteworthy? I guess it’s noteworthy that I broke a bit of a sweat. Perhaps I’m not running hard enough?

1½ hours with the roof rake. Some it with the shovel. But most of it with the rake. Damn but that is some hard work. Don’t let anyone tell you different.

1½ hours with the roof rake. It’s harder than it looks. Then another ½ hour shoveling the driveway to clear away all the snow I knocked off the roof. Sometimes I hate winter.

15 (barefoot) minutes on that treadmill. First half seemed to take forever. So tired this week.

Two identical days in a row? That’s weird.

Return to the treadmill. 15 minutes, barefoot. A little Jeff Mills mix to help the time go by.

30 minutes shoveling. Maybe 45? Not horrific, but obnoxious.

30 minutes of shoveling that turned into “more like 45”. And that snow sure has piled high.

90 friggin’ minutes of shoveling. Damn. There went a chunk of my afternoon “working from home”.
