| Early morning run chasing the grooming chap round the XC trails. A lot of snowfall in the night meant lots of falling through the trails and at one point going up to my waist by accidentally stepping off the edge. Tee hee! Back and into our sauna - awesome place to be. |

| Ha ha! My first ever attempt at XC Skiing! Spent a lot of the first couple of kilometres falling on my arse, then got better at being stable, and then by the end was vastly improved! My technique was crap so I couldn't really up my heart rate so much, but it was a good strength work out and a lot of fun! We were out there that long but there was lots of falling and stopping and photo taking and giggling, so I guess actual exercise time was a little less! |

| The biggest hangover in the world, followed by a 6 hour bus journey to Hemsedal. Lesson: Don't let big drinkers from Glasgow, or German people, pour your measures of drinks. Eurgh. |

| Awesome morning in Oslo! Took the T bahn out to Sognsvann, then was out in the forest before the sun came out. Did a 4.8km course from some military champs in 2002, then ran from Sognsvann to Holmenkollen using a rubbish tourist map of ski runs. It was stupendously icy and slippy on the tracks so ran in the woods where possible. Eventually hit the top of the hill in the amazing sunshine, not a cloud in the sky, and it was just stunning. Fantastic way to end the year!

| Did a little control pick at Gullane, with about 30 controls. Because the legs were short I was forced to terrain for most of the session and it hurt a lot more than I expected it too. Felt a bit sluggish once I left the woodland. I think my legs are missing the weights. |
