Tyr tur. Shadowed E round a bit of a course, then ran back through a section on my own. Map a bit out of date and not quite Halden forests, but at least I could read the map!

Run in Karlstad Tyr Skog with CM and J. Mostly in terrain. Feeling not too bad running. Few cams of snow underfoot. Nice.

Skate practice at Erte skianlegg. Track a bit rough in places, but not too bad in the circumstances (+1C, artificial snow and pisters have been out of action). Chest still a bit choked and breathing really wasn't working from the outset, so didn't do as much as I'd hoped to. Skating got better after the first lap w-u, but then rapidly plateaued out.

Hoias night training, control pick. Slow but steady. Reassuring finding the "blue" controls which had reflectors out. Getting used to stopping to read the map more than normal. Lovely clear night. Thin layer of snow / ice underfoot.
Tracking

Need to do more of this. Tender spot at top of left hamstring.

Steady trot with J. Ulvaas, Venaas ski jump, and back by blue trail. Slight chest irritation, but generally feeling a bit brighter today.

Night sprint at Sarpsborg, underneath the motorway. Not the most exciting of areas, but a good thrash and a real reminder of how (not) to race. Shouldn't have let J catch me up by 5'. Felt ok running, just a bit sluggish on the hills.

Not really enough w-u

Still feeling a bit meh. Jogged round the festning TT loop with the idea of doing a subsequent effort on it, but realised there was nothing in me and in any case the paths were quite icy in places. Carried on for a further jog round other parts of the grounds instead. Cold and sunny.

Jog down to circuits and back. Been feeling a bit meh today. Hopefully just tired and not going down with E's cold.
