Catching up in the garden. Didn't feel motivated to do any training.

X-country skiing 1:00:00 [3] 9.5 km (6:19 / km) +125m 5:56 / km
Early lap of the Ustedalfjorden before heading off. Saw a white hare on the track quite close to the town. Track getting a bit thin but nicely pisted. Felt relaxed skating on the flat - it's really come together in these few days. Chuffed at the progress. E going well too.
Skate and no break successful.

X-country skiing 2:15:00 [3] 15.2 km (8:53 / km) +460m 7:43 / km
From Ustaoset up to Prestholtseter. Brilliant climb with E beassting out front, followed by nice wee descent and a lovely km of skating to the hut. First out behind the pistie beastie and snow in lovely condition. Then a tough 3.5km west into the headwind before heading back down the hill. Big grins.
Tried to modify my poling to counteract the one-sidedness I seem to have developed over the last couple of days. Worked well.

2 PM
X-country skiing 40:00 [3] 3.8 km (10:32 / km)
Lunch looking out over the lake at Hagastol then headed out on the track crossing over to the far side of the lake. Turned back after deciding that water skis would be more appropriate for the 2nd half.
4 PM
Running 20:00 [3]
Wee jog with J out the back from the hut. Stiff and awkward but loosened up a bit by the time we got back.

X-country skiing 2:30:00 [3] 16.7 km (8:59 / km) +420m 7:59 / km
From Havsdal out towards Vestreim hut via the Budalsvatnet then back over the top to the Prestholt track. Really nice route - not one we've done before - and snow in good condition. Some nice skating bits too. Going ok on flatter stuff but still grinding to a halt on the hills. Very windy out at Vestreim. Hard work at times but then a nice tail wind up the first hill from the hut. E enjoyed the final descent, managing to forget the pain of the wind.
5 PM
X-country skiing 25:00 [3] 3.5 km (7:09 / km)
Another wee practice session around and about the biathlon trails.

X-country skiing 3:00:00 [3] 20.7 km (8:42 / km) +425m 7:53 / km
Geilo Skate or Break day 1. Ruperanden loop from Kikut before lunch then a short loop out towards Gronebakken turning back before the roller coaster section and back from Hakasettstolen over Kikkutheisen. Knew this was going to be hard and it was. Lots of bad skating on slightly tricky snow, but there's only one way to improve...
5 PM
X-country skiing 30:00 [3] 4.1 km (7:19 / km)
Rest and snack back at the ranch then back out for a wee bit more practice at the biathlon range / lyse loype. Getting a bit porridgey.

Orienteering race 36:00 [5]
JK relays 3rd leg on WO. Too caught up in junior races to think about this, or indeed warm-up. OK once I got going although I was trying my hardest to avoid climbing the hill on the first leg. Messed up 2nd last control and a few other hesitations.
