Skate Ski warm up/down 14:00 [2] 1.4 km (10:00 / km)
Skate Ski race (Balsams) 1:25:40 [4] 15.0 km (5:43 / km)
Blue course. Couple tough climbs. Made bad route choice from 10 to 11 around the top, and the extra climb probably cost me 5 min. Temp low 20's, wax was okay with hf6, but 7 would have been better.
Skate Ski warm up/down 9:00 [3] 1.0 km (9:00 / km)
Back up to alpine base lodge.
Skate Ski race (Sprint ) 11:20 [5] 1.9 km (5:58 / km)
Sprint set up by hotel. Nice simple layout, short and dashing back and forth. Had some extra grooming tracks thrown on top of the main trails and foot trails put in. Made using the map for route choice a little confusing.
Skate Ski race 7:20 [5] 1.4 km (5:14 / km)
Second run. By now blowing snow had obscured the grooming, but herd path went straight to the controls. I just spotted the next control and headed on the best path to it. Much faster. Best time Ali and Scott at 6:08.
Skate Ski warm up/down 30:00 [2] 3.4 km (8:49 / km)
Warm up between sprints. Control pickup.
