Workout: Nothing beats an easy long distance workout in the wilderness. First an early am kayak paddle across Lake Umbagog (.4 hrs), then a hike with poles on rolling snowmobile trails and old logging roads (2.5 hrs), then a dip in the lake to wash off before paddling back to the start (.4 hrs). Intensity is 99% at Level 1 with a few easy sprints to remind the fast twitch muscles how to fire. This is meant to be a nonstop session, but I always break for wildlife & scenery!

Club: Bates College & US biathlon A team
Workout: Ilke and I like to do Long distance sessions (OD's) straining one particular part of the body. One of our favorites so far this summer has been a 4 hour double pole only in difficult terrain. We will also do a no pole skates lasting 4 hours this week. So far, the really long workouts have become my favorite - i suspect that this month we may do a double pole lasting a few days - around lake champlain or something. those are my favorites - i also like mountain bike racing occasionaly (3 or 4 laps).
