Warm up - thought I'd come over earlier in the day and do the time trails while it was still hard and fast. Hadn't counted on running out of steam.
Just above freezing, trails in pretty good shape, but a few sectinos where it was pretty icy.

Skate time trail. First lap was ok - 10:45. Not a lot of energy on the uphills, but was working them as best I could.
Second lap - 11:38 - just ran out of mental and physical energy - dogged the hills.
Feeling unsteady. Decided somewhere on the 2d lap that it would not be a good idea to do the classic time trial.
Not congested, but just not breathing well. Will attribute it to my cold, too long since I've done anything physical, and packing a few too many extra pounds.
