Column Some More

40 - 45 min. walking to top of the column, 164 stair-steps. This is a nice terrain layout for warming up, cooling down. Excellent intensity. The uphill is arduous and gets aerobic, challenges strength/endurance. Workout is sufficient to keep the metabolism elevated for the rest of the day -- and so I'm doing this walk first thing.

Storm pants, long-John pants . . . It was icy this morning.

234 lbs! 43% fat.

We're looking at Nordic trekking poles.

Nordic poles . . . I ordered a pair! They're one-piece SWIX w/ Salomon design patented straps. No gimmicks! I can use these like the Nordic poles I use for skiing.

Also . . . it's snowing here a bit . . . I found long-johns at the work-clothing store for $5 pair. I got three pair. Dressing for the weather is essential to getting out in it.
