I'm training for IM Lake Placid, and reading your posts makes me so jealous! I live in Montreal, so from November to April there's too much snow or salt on the roads to train... I'd go but I'd ruin my bike! So all winter I'm stuck on my trainer watching movies. Multitasking is great but it just isn't the same as a real ride. As for running, this week I was brutalized by freezing rain, everything was so iced up that running a block would have left me flat on my face.
