Running 34:00 [2] 6.0 km (5:40 / km)
Spent best part of the day driving down through Sweden to Smålandskavlen. Slightly unimpressed as the level of snow on the side of the roads steadily increased the closer we got...
Arrived at our sweetly located farmhouse accommodation, 250m from the arena; ideal for spending maximal time in the warmth and minimal time out in the freezing cold. Eventually managed to drag myself out for an evening jog. A useful test of number of layers required for running.
Got back in time to watch the women's start, then did return trips to and from the house to catch the changovers and finish of the night legs. Jo had a bit of a mare on first leg, but Kine killed it on second leg to bring us back up to 3rd going into the day legs, 3mins behind.

Squeezed in a run between work and heading to football end of season. Up around Venås and tracks at a decent pace, or atleast faster than ive managed the last few weeks.

Note
(rest day)
Giving the dregs of the virus a day to get out (hopefully). Do I need to do 11 hashtags for a rest-day? I'm going to say no. Thinking up 11 hashtags is energy sapping, not a rest-day activity.

Tirsdagsnatt training at Skårefjell N.
My first mass start night in a long time. My stomach is still not quite recovered, gets a bit uncomfortable with all the bouncing involved in running. Even more so with the agility terrain running requires. So I was planning on a slow and steady approach. Still, I was a bit surprised to be dropped even on the jog to the start. Didn't think I was going that slow?
Anyway, Eva gave Helene, our French junior, the same splitting as me so that she could follow me. Yeah...more like so I could follow her! I was leading on most legs, but she'd lead me in to the control site. yay for team work! All up was good fun running with/against the girls, even if Vilma and Karoline left me in their dust today. Damn these fast juniors...
What other excuses can I find? Oh, half way through I lost my R leg down a covered-up leg sized crack in some not-so-bare rock. A trap Bear Grylls would have been proud of, let alone in the dark! I had no chance. Went down to the knee and my momentum meant my leg bent a bit in the wrong direction. Survived to fight another day though ;)

Strength and Conditioning 1:00:00 [1]
I've been doing some research on fitness hashtags so I can keep up with Bun's gym snaps. Wow, there is a wealth of advice out there! Apparently the golden number is 11 hashtags per workout...so let's see how I can do...
#gainzzz (obvs) #danceparty #squadgoals #goaldigger #monslay #pushpullgrind #obesetobeast #planker #gluteusmaximus #squats #calves
Just jokes. I actually arrived late and missed squats.

Running 1:03:00 [2] 10.5 km (6:00 / km) +200m 5:29 / km
Starting to feel alive again. Went for a jog in the thick cloud. Managed to make it up to høiås for some sweet views.
Started to feel like maybe I'd bitten off too much on the way home so took some little strolling breathers.
No cats today. My friendly neighbourhood sheep at Eklimoen were out and enjoying the weather though.
