| City of Lakes ReLoppet ski tour...Wirth to Uptown...Kari and I decided to classic ski the 25K course with some modifications...used our waxless skis....Fantastic day and snow...we cut out some "boring" golf course sections and added in more K's in the very hilly 'wildflower and Bog section...(O map area)...the open track tour to Uptown was a great idea...with good conditions the scenery was amazing and we moved well (average HR was 147)...Kari skiing has improved all season and by the lakes on the way to Uptown I was at Marathon race pace with Kari hanging right in behind....
skiing needs more events like this...people out for fun rather than just racing which scares many participants off....there must have been close to 300 people for this event that was only announced 4 days earlier....Im looking forward to skating these sections this week on the new homr course... |

| wow...forgot what good conditions were like...a late night skate ski....fast conditions and my old RCS's were doing very well....skied at 10pm at night without lights but it was bright with overcast skies and all the white snow...French was great.....I will miss it after we move...but the City of Lakes Loppet trail will be the new home course...looks like I will be able to ski it in March in good conditions....I wish we would get this kind of snow in December..... |
