| x-c ski classic 1:00:00 [1] | |

| First one of the year. amazing that we could ski with so little snow. Trails had been packed. a couple of rocks by interval hill but other than that...
Selwyns was awesome. Saw Sam out there skating which would have been even better since there aren't tracks. Bound to have sore hip flexors tomorrow. |

| Advanced spring class. Liz is killing us. Making me sore. My abs are going to be sooo sexy... or maybe I will just manage to hold off the paunch that is bound to creep in with all my inactivity of late. |

| Run on Long Lake. I thought it would be good to get in a last bit of orienteering before the snow falls and the temps drop even more. So glad I went out. Awesome to be running through the forest again after a break for a couple of weeks. Frozen map hand was the only complaint; having Raynaud's sucks--especially when you live in the Yukon!

| orienteering race (Westerns long) 1:26:39 [4] *** | |
| |
| Felt a bit better again today.Too bad the races weren't a couple of days later. A decent run anyway. Lost a couple of mins on #5 making a stupid parallel error. Especially annoying when i had originally thought to just run back out to the trail and in along the marsh. It pays to keep it safe. I also picked the wrong route on the long leg but only lost about 30 secs. caught myself fairly quickly on the 3rd last leg but probably lost 30 secs there too. maybe a few other little bobbles...nice to be on the right side of the bunch of tightly grouped runners today (instead of on the wrong side like yesterday)beating Brian by only a few seconds to get 3rd. Awesome that there was such a good field.
I have posted my routes on Route Gadget...

| Oterval session on Riverdale sprint map. 5 x 3-4min sections. Good group. Ross and I caught up to Afan, lee and colin after the first one so we ran the rest of them as a large group. Tons of fun with the forking and lts of people.
I felt totally crap though. I kind of felt light-headed after the first one. Last night I felt exhaused and went to bed at about 8:30. Seriously wondering if I haven't picked up mono from Pippa... |
