This was planned to be a chill ski day - see how my warm skis were running, go out and putz around a bit.
Met up with Jeff Pallieko as I was getting stuff on - he was partway through a distance day - "let's cruise together for a bit". Took me a bit to get warmed up, out of breath on the uphills, catching up on the downhills with better wax. Around Cobble, Rocl Loop, then out Birch and up by the stream along Oak - bridge was broken on one side, but still crossable. Back along Maple, then up the Cobble S as the power lines were getting bare. No oomph on that uphill - cruised back to the top of Rock Loop - Jeff headed back in. I headed over to Short Oak, then back up Maple, Oak down by the stream, climbed back up to the logging cut and the turn around loop, then came back to come down Birch at high speed - smooth and fun.
Wasn't really planning to do 16.5 k, but feeling good at the end, but tired.
Back to work and more rest this week.
