XC Skiing (Classic) 3:40:17 [3] 49.84 km (4:25 / km) +402m 4:15 / km
Lake Louise to (almost) Banff Loppet.
Good adventure skiing in Banff National Park. Jostling racers, road crossing, ice flows, alders, dirt patches, frozen death cookies, sketchy downhills, beautiful views, and sunshine. My favorite kind of a day.
Training more would have been a better idea. Now have some mild self-inflicted medial epicondylitis. Oh yeah, and is there an official term for the condition in which every single muscle in your body is sore? I have that.
Also got to experience ab cramps for the first time. Interesting feeling!
Congrats especially to fellow APer Carbon's Offset for completing his first LL to B loppet! I hope his new hairy skis survived...
