[...] I made it to Frostbite Falls again! This year I even made it on time, without a short-cut, and did a few victory laps before unpacking my lefse to share with all the other Penguins. Last year I didn’t get to FBF until January 35th. Make room in the hot tub, Penguin buddies, I’m diving in! [...]

[...] ORN: Last night I started my annual January journey to Frostbite Falls by running and walking 5 km. I made myself run up both the small and big hills, only walking for a bit at the top. There was only a little bit of ice, and the chinook wind blew 7C/45F air around me. If anyone would like to meet me there, I’m bringing Kahlua for the coffee and potato lefse rolled up with butter, cinnamon and sugar [...]

[...] For each month of 2006 either myself or Karen will post a challenge. January was the trip to Frostbite Falls. February was Emulating our Olympic Athletes. So what is the new challenge for March? [...]

[...] That’s the sound I made just now as I hopped in the hot tub at Frostbite Falls. I finally made it. Actually I ran a little past to find a good place to hide and change into my swimsuit. No one even knew it was me when I ran by, as I was wearing a lime green jacket instead of my trademark pink. [...]

[...] So this month’s challenge was an imaginery run to Frostbite Falls. You set the distance and the activity to get you there. Post about it all month and of course bring a treat to share with your friends when you get there. [...]

[...] Okay this month’s challenge is a trip to Frostbite Falls. I can hardly wait to get there and soak in the hot tub. Like Karen, I suspect the trip will be a little over 100kms (60 miles) away by foot but like last year I may look for a short cut near the end of the month. I’ve decided to travel light and I’m having Little Penguin Wines ship a couple of cases of wine – one red/one white to arrive when I do. If it gets there before me, save me a bottle of the white eh. I’ll pack up some different cheeses to bring along as well to go with the wine. [...]

[...] Well, I’m going to try my best to meet Nancy, Tri-Mama, and the rest of the gang at Frostbite Falls this year. To some people my journey to Frostbite Falls may seem like a stroll in the park. There are many, many people who have to travel much farther to get there than I do. To me, however, I see that 9000 yard swim down the Potomac as a breathless struggle against my own bad form and each step of the the 20 miles I’ll have to run as potentially causing a new and frustrating injury. When I do finally make it however, I’ll at least be among friends whom I know have each worked as hard (if not harder) than I have to get to this party. As for a time frame, I have no idea when I’ll be able to make it. I hope to be there by the 20th to fire up the grill and start catching a few fresh salmon to add to the feast. If it takes me a few days longer, so be it, but rest assured that I WILL be there! [...]

[...] This is a long one, with lots of links to past posts, so if you’re in the mood for some reminiscing with me, get yourself a cup of coffee and enjoy the review. Hopefully in the next day or two I’ll post my 2006 goals and how far away Frostbite Falls looks to me this January. [...]

My first step will be to set up a training log… this sounds like a fun way to train through dreary January–although sometimes I think I live in the actual frostbite falls.
