XC Skiing 3:20:05 30.1 km (6:39 / km) +399m 6:14 / km
Easy Langrenn
Out for a long day with Oleg. Up to the hut, one harder loop and then out to the north on some nice back country trails. Back for lunch with a loop either side, and then started heading home. Two additional loops, first one along some road which made bailing a bit sore, and second one bashing our own tracks on a few indistinct paths. Then tacked the dreaded steep slope just before the end and was met with a faceful of snow.
Decent day out, perfect conditions in the sun and -5c. Feeling more confident on the skis but no faster. Might look to do a bit more after bucs.

Path/Terrain 16:41 [2] 2.62 km (6:23 / km) +41m 5:55 / km
shoes: VJ Bold (2017)
Orienteering intervals 54:52 7.46 km (7:21 / km) +130m 6:46 / km
shoes: VJ Bold (2017)
O-Intervals
8 short efforts, working hard but not getting much back. Still, much better than I felt the last few weeks. Legs very weak in the terrain of frozen ground and crusty snow, and spending too much time checking where to put my feet instead of looking at the map. Not too many mistakes but just not very linear in my routes. Oleg (visiting this weekend) giving me a good push.

Easy
Afternoon adventures with Oleg round the pisted trails. A few falls today but getting a lot more confident, especially in my snowplow down some steep slopes where committing would mean suicide.

Easy
Loop of southern Halden/Tistedalen. Nice in the evening light, but bitterly cold and icy. Knee began complaining towards the end as it normally does after time off, need to do some prehab on it. Lungs working for the first time in a good while though.

'Easy'
Four laps of the standard loop at Hoias. Some exciting downhills in there, hitting 30kph by the end. Quite proud of how easy skiing felt after a good number of years since I last tried it. Temperature dropping hard over the next few days.

Note
(sick)
Not sure what's up with me but think there's something underlying, swollen and painful glands all weekend just about wearing off now but generally quite tired and even 10hrs sleep every night not adequate enough. Will see how it goes but might find a doctor soon. Bucs next week should be funny if not quite tragic coming off my current shape.
