XC Skiing race 7:30:00 [4] 71.0 km (6:20 / km)
Lake Louise to Banff Loppet.
Went hard off the start double poling down the tramline, but body didn't like that I felt like absolute crap for the next 5km. Shoulders hurt like hell and didn't want to warm up. Rest of me felt heavy and disheartened. Then like all long distance journeys my body got into and then I felt great. Gorgeous ski, lots of adventure. Definitely have to get out and ski more than 5 times before this race next year!!!
