Exeter Snowshoe Hullabaloo put on by Acidotic Racing. Did this one on a whim after finding out about it on Friday. The parking lot was a little intimidating; everyone looked like pretty serious runners. It went well overall. It was tough to find a sustainable yet competitive pace. 22/85 OA
Spin date w PH. 222W avg x 52.5 mins. Embarrassingly starting to like the thumping dance music they play. It must be a subconscious association I have with red zone endorphins after being a beast in the saddle. There's no other conceivable explanation.

Skiing around farm/conservation trails. Nice conditions initially but slowed as new snow rapidly covered tracks. I forgot how grippy the base on these skis was: like full-time skins - nice on steeps but otherwise sloggy.
