Got up early and drove up to Einsiedeln for a ski (classic) before work!
Glorious to be above the fog in the winter landscape for sunrise, kind of surreal to go back to a normal working day after this!

Note (sick)
Woke up with a very slightly sore throat which progressed by evening to the aching and feeble kind of sick :( bummed cos I had lots of training planned this week, but as long as I am better for POM next week..

Cross country race Luzern, 4 x 1km lap. Flat but grassy/muddy with two hay bales per lap.
Quite slow but I pushed hard, mainly felt held back by legs and feeling sick on the last lap when trying to push harder. Couldn't expect much more as I have done very little intense training.
I always had some dread before these kind of races, but actually I quite like them once I take the pressure off and enjoy the opportunity to push myself. So I have to find more opportunities, it will help me a lot with race toughness.
