Note
(sick)

Supposed to be going to Kelowna for OK cup #2, but feeling aweful so slept for 14 hours instead. Just a head cold with a bit of a sore throat and a constant cough.

Easy classic ski before/during the pirate loppet. Went up Sky Trail to the North Hub, Larch Lake Loop was ungroomed and really slow, so after that I came down the road to Gullans. Watched the middle bit of the loppet, and then went and did the short south loop and then Chalet Loop backwards. Good ski, feeling pretty good, but a slight cough started today.

Saturday Jan 16, 2016 #

Skiing - Classic 1:00:00 [5] 17.0 km (3:32 / km)

Reino loppet. Great race! very happy with beating eric, and best of all my body felt good. It wasn't just a brain forcing the body to do things it couldn't (the rest of the season so far), but my body actually responded well to what my brain wanted. Just below the 1 hour mark, in super slow snowy conditions.

Skiing - Classic warm up/down 30:00 [1]

Warm up and then a group cool-down with a bunch of the pelicans/flamingos.

Swimming 45:00 [1]

Fun playing around in the pool before the awards ceremony. Nice to play in the water, haven't been to the pool in over a year!

Strength at SAS. Fairly easy workout due to the races on the weekend. Legs are still feeling tired.

Sunday Jan 10, 2016 #

Skiing - Skate race 31:14 [5] 10.0 km (3:07 / km)

10k interval start free at sovereign for bc cup. Pacing was good, second lap was slightly faster than the first ands i left pretty much everything out on the course. Happy with the weekend, but still needs improvement.

Skiing - Skate warm up/down 50:00 [1]

Shorter warm up due to long distance and tired legs. Cool down was also short due to the fact that I needed food more than to flush lactate.

Ditched the fun race to go out to the far east for the first time ever. Beautiful day, absolutely a hoot coming back down. Hit 51km/h! Was going to go down South Canoe as well, but decided that it would not be beneficial since I felt quite tired after the race yesterday.

Saturday Jan 2, 2016 #

Skiing - Classic 25:00 [5] 7.5 km (3:20 / km)

Teck OK Cup 1 in Revelstoke. First race of the year for skiing, and with the cold that I have had the past few days I did not have high expectations.

Tried to have goodish pacing and catch rides when I could when people passed me. The other goal was to beat all the girls... which I managed to do.

Race went fairly well, all things considered. Can really fell the cold and how I am out of shape.

Skiing - Classic warm up/down 1:10:00 [1]
