Two weeks into running on these Brooks Pure Grit "minimalist" trail shoe and loving them. Light, lots of flex, grippy, and only 4mm heel-toe offset. Fun shoes that replace my Brooks Cascadia 3's, which were awesome, but long overdue for retirement.

Fun small surf after work on friday, although the water was brown from all the blown out rivers, after a week of rain. Watched this flock of late migrating geese fly low over us while we bobbed around catching some little fun ones.

Cleaning stinging nettles and watching Ryder Hesjedal win the Giro d’Italia....although that's not him in this shot.

Some mushrooms on a log. Not sure that you would want to eat these, but fun to look at.

Despite the two week hiatus from skiing in mid february because of being sick and having way more 'classic' days than skate this winter, i still had a decent ski in the 50km Sleeping Giant Loppet on the weekend. Not my best time, but personally a very satisfying ski. Thoroughly spent on a beauty of a day.

Photo's are limited since i was more focused on pushin my self than pushin the shutter on the point and shoot.

The scene.

Somewhere between kilometer 25 and 35. Feeling energetic and coordinated enough to capture some action in the sun while on the move.

Still lot's of skiing left in the season.

Note to self: 'self, more training for next year'.


peace out
