SATURDAY,  April 30th  2016

Mont Chauve, Parc du mont Orford
HIKING  start 9 am
TEMP :
10°C and sunny

From Le Cerisier .Via  Le Pékan, that's the Z snowshoe trail, then a bit of #10 and #11 and then go by "the Vallonier" and around the Mont Chauve loop, west side first
With Gabriel, We wanted to do Les Crêtes but they weren't open yet..

2h47 mins  + / AveHR  110  66% / MaxHR  146  88%  / 1226 cals / 50 % fat / 37 mins InZone (75%+)
Lunch ~30mins
3h02 mins  + / AveHR  102  61% / MaxHR  138  83%  / 1054 cals / 55 % fat / 12 mins InZone (75%+)

Aches & Pains  : I stumble comming down and hurt my left knee, right tibia, right quad and right upper right arm. I actually shout out "aie" 4 times and then when I stop rolling down shout " ça va!" but not loud enough for Gaby to hear me as he's running back to help me. He actually saw me rolling down 2 of the 4  times. Still have 1,5 hours of hiking back to the car.. It goes "OK" (note on May 5th: what's even worse is that I hurt my right shoulder.. around the clavicle when I raise my arm.)

We'll see tomorrow about my aches and pains.

This is an old winter map : the Z trail is now "le Pékan" and part of the Mont Chauve is missing.. cause we usually start at La Grande Halte which is also where we start for Les Crêtes.

Car trip to the Northern-most 4000 footer in the Whites :
See a deer in the morning and a moose coming hone.

Mount Cabot, White Mountains, NH 36/48
With Gabriel
HIKING  start 8h41 am  // Finish at 4h45 PM
18 km
TEMP :
10-15°C and sunny

From Mill Brook Road
UP TO THE HORN
3h04 mins  AveHR  133  80% / MaxHR  153  92%  / 1766 cals / 35 % fat / 2h23 mins InZone (75%+)
LUNCH 10 mins
UP TO THE
MOUNT CABOT
1h12 mins  AveHR  129  78% / MaxHR  146  88%  / 655 cals / 40 % fat / 45 mins InZone (75%+)
SNACK 8 mins
DOWN INCLUDING SNACK AT Unknown Pond
3h37 mins  AveHR  108 65% / MaxHR  146  88%  / 1430 cals / 55 % fat / 45 mins InZone (75%+)

Tear a little the skin on my left knee, climbing to the top bolders of the Horn. Gaby says that I don't seem quite as sure of myself as usually, and it's true.. my legs are almost shaking at times from being tired. But the 360° view on a sunny day with snow still on Mount Washington, and a good view of The Buldge and Mount Cabot is worth it. It's the best place to have lunch.

Aches & Pains  : Just weak and tired.. I think my training this year isn't as effective as it was with A.M. Gabriel takes one of my hydration packs, and I feel better but still it's  difficult.

Above :There are alot of snow / blue ice spots and while I think my left foot is firmly set on one of them, when I push off to take a step I slip, don't quite fall, but bend my left hiking pole.  Map : Gaby's GPS trace is actually à little different than the map, and the trail is very visible  but there are very few markers in the trees. Below : I have no idea what I'm talking about but this looked like a "Moose nest" where a cow and her calfs could lay down. There was ALOT of moose scat all along the trail, some quite fresh. Too many branches on the ground for it to be a campground.


BED AT 10h30 PM

The NEW Beach volley court in the nearby park is being prepared.

2 new benches and a set of bleachers for the soccer field. Good for outdoor workouts.

50 mins  + / AveHR  126 76% / MaxHR  151  91%  / 440 cals / 40 % fat / 31 mins InZone (75%+)
"Best of " for the last class of the season  ie: à little bit of everything.
 

PLANNING : ok, so on May 16th I decided that Cardio-Militaire is not for me, and on the 20th I realized that I really need to step up my training. The C-M intervals, often alternating muscu and cardio just isn't enough for the type of hiking I do and the Buns of Steel class is over for the summer..  So I'm on my own... but that's ok :)  I'll start with 8 weeks of P90X3, that brings me to July 18th, when we'll be on vacation. I'll have to add more high step-ups to simulate climbing.. maybe on the Precor 100i.. have lots to think about..
