Also got a couple days of bike commuting in between big snows, along with my normal walk/hike commutes to work (7k roundtrip).

And another run the day after our snow storm in Toronto. Felt like running on sand!

Great morning trail run with the best dog in the world. We've been putting in a lot of time hiking and running lately. I love winter. I just wish it would stop warming up. I want snow, not slush!

Great hike w/the pup this evening a/f a morning bike trainer tempo session and then a daytime hike in the glorious sun. Caught a late sunset and the moon.

Honored to be in this list of other amazing scientists I look up to. Being 50th in the list hopefully just indicates that I am a slow with deadlines - and nothing more 😂
Ending this 🧵 with the 50th scientist announced today 🎉

Another great cold run with my husky/malamute this morning. We got to see the sunrise over the forest and gravestones at our local cemetery.

Evening hikes. Almost lost our snow today and it's now basically turned to ice (from 5c to -10c overnight). Should be fun skating around the sidewalks and streets of Toronto tomorrow! How fantastic would it be if you could actually skate or xc ski to work?!

I've been loving the cold and snow that we've had after New Years here in Toronto. I would far prefer a vacation in Norway, hut to hut skiing this winter rather than going somewhere warm. Any other winter lovers out there?

Love this about why expansion of highways increases travel times.

Morning session: 45 mins upper body and core strength and then a 35 min easy run after yesterday's FRC sprints on the trainer. Felt good and not too tired. Then the 40 min walk to work. Great way to start the day.

And an FRC workout on the trainer (because it was -10c with -20c feels like) so these were inside. #cycling #cyclist #biketrainer

Vermont isn't the first state people think of with regard to climate disasters, but the way devastating floods have exacerbated the state's existing housing crisis represents a perfect illustration of @amb.fyi's point.

During my time on Facebook, I tried to practice an open, digital version of what 17th c humanists called a "commonplace book". This is why I would frequently post quotations and invite conversation.

I'd like to try something similar here. If this is your thing, feel free to tune in or take part. 🙏

Another magnificent day hiking on local ravine trails. I love winter. I just wish real winter would stick around for a few months in Toronto!
