Saturday Mar 3

X-C Skiing race (Rangeley Loppet) 3:45:00 [4]49 km (4:36 / km)
shoes: Fischer RCS race
Rangeley got a foot of snow Friday, and tried to pack it for Saturday's race. Got it packed, but no way the snow could set up. So the skiers quickly churned it up into 6" of sugar snow. First 5 km was really bad, like skating in quicksand. Then it improved a bit for the balance of the 25 km loop. The second lap was much better. The temp was warm, and the traffic consolidated the surface pretty well. As a result. the splits were almost identical (within 5 seconds) despite getting tired from all the work.

5km - 20.29
10km - 26.53
20km - 47.46
(1/2 - 1.52.27)
30km - 21.24
35km - 25.36
40km - 25.28
45km - 23.12
F - 3.44.59 (2nd half 1.52.32)

Big crash right at the start. Laid back and didn't rush, but right out of the start stadium was a turn and slight downhill. Somebody fell, and took everyone around with them. I heard the cries and cut along the side. The guy in front of me went down, and I skied just off the side of the trail to miss. Unfortunately, that put me in 3' of powder, so I got sucked down, too. Great way to start!

Thursday Mar 1

X-C Skiing (Kingdom Valley - skate) 26:00 [3]6 km (4:20 / km)
Snow thawed and set up, so finally trail is firmly consolidating. Noticably faster than previous outings, even though I was taking it easy.

Had to get inside in time to watch Dan and the Atlas Ascender on WBZ's 6:00 news!

Ready for some more snow and sleet tomorrow. Then up to Maine for the Rangeley Loppet. Will be a real grind if they get the expected 18" of new snow -- no way it will be solid in time for Saturday's race. Could be a long 50 km.

Wednesday Feb 28

X-C Skiing (Saratoga Biathlon Center) 57:00 [3]10 km (5:42 / km)
Over at Saratoga for grooming clinic, looking at latest Tidd Tech gear. Afterwards went for two laps around the 5 km biathlon course (no guns today). Most of it had 2" wet unpacked snow on top of a great base.

Tuesday Feb 27

Weight Training 3:00 [3]
weight:165lbs
10 pullups
X-C Skiing (Kingdom Valley - skate) 1:00:00 [3]11 km (5:27 / km)
shoes: Fischer RCS rock
Warm -- mid 30's. High moisture in snow. Not waxed for this, so a little slow.

Monday Feb 26

X-C Skiing (Kingdom Valley - skate) 1:27:00 [3]16.8 km (5:11 / km)
4 long loops, 5 short in the Fields. Snow in excellent shape; 8-10" under the skate lane and maybe 14" where it's unpacked. Got another couple inches while we were in Wisconsin.
X-C Skiing (Kingdom Valley - skate) 29:30 [3]6 km (4:55 / km)
A few more laps around the fields with Ruthie just before dark.
Note
Looks like the Bombi blew up its clutch, so hope there's no more big storms for a while.
