Skate Ski race (American Birkebeiner) 3:40:37 [4] 50.25 km (4:23 / km)
Supposed to be a pretty warm day, but temp on the way to the start said -9F as we went by the bank in Cable. Not a good sign as I waxed for the 20's. It was probably +10F by the start and into the 20's when I finished. Glide not great in the woods, but picked up when I got in the sun. The last 3k across the lake to the finish was fantastic.
Splits for 10k's:
46:35
46:46
42:41
44:27
40:08
Most of the climb was in the first two splits.
Happy with the overall results, as it was a significant improvement over last year (40 minutes!).
Greg did a great job for his first marathon at 3:34. Ruthie did the 23k Korteloppet and finished 11th in her age group!
