Ski 45:48 [1] 7.7 mi (5:57 / mi) +107m 5:42 / mi
Tactical strike out to Weston this morning. I have an evening event which I was volunteered for (someone asked if I was available on this day, and made no mention that it was in the evening when I stupidly said yes) so I have an excuse to skip a rainy Weston, which makes me a bit less bitter. So out to Weston in the morning, which isn't too bad since it's school vacation week.
A little traffic out, then 45 minutes, with 4 4ish minute pickups around the loop. hard to go hard, because in places they'd made snow a little too long and it had bad pole plants and I didn't want to break a Triac and then in places it was super, duper, slow. Like, barely moving V1 slow. They had groomed, sort of, but there were guys working on something electrical, so near there the grooming was terrible. With a bit of snow and then rain coming today, tonight might be a mess.
Birkie, however, looks terrific. An inch or two of new snow to till into the base. I'm excited.
Then I got in the car, drove home, not too much traffic, and checked my calendar, and I had a meeting at 10. Fuck. Exceptionally quick shower, ate a bialy on the run to the train (nearly choked) and was about 5 minutes late.
