Operate steady for 1hr. No hemorrhoid-inducing weight or frantic pace, just steady. It’s “New” Mexican night tonight and mamacita knows how to cook the green chile. Gotta earn it.

was really hoping to the trails today, but at 3:00 PM we still hand't hit 0 yet, so back to the gym and dreadmill - 4 miles
Tiny Elvis is fit to be tied, he's on day four of not hitting the trails (longest I can recall) and he's not happy- the holiday costume isn't making him any happier either
Broke trail 680vert up the PT hill after we cleared all the snow around the place. Trophy wife is cooking. We’re loading bullets, making jerky and I’ll have a couple 7.0% recovery drinks later this afternoon.
Have a good Christmas Eve with the fam fellas.
We got above 0 today-yippee! 3 miles snowshoeing with my, youngest daughter and Tiny Elvis finally got back on the trails- also went over my goal of 2022 miles!

Feels like Spring! 4 miles with my wife, youngest daughter and Tiny Elvis. I think I've burned about 2000 calories in the last two days and have eaten about 6000!
Got out in the woods yesterday. Can’t say we hiked too much, but we did locate the bull moose track I was hoping to find. Around February, we’ll start looking for his paddles.
