We travelled last evening to Cogne where we'll meet with my parents and my brothers family to compete at the XC skiing marathon. Unfortunately after pushing the limits on my recovery the last weeks I started to feel a strong cold come.
But today the weather was awesome, so I went on a very slow tour, skiing up the Val Nonthey. Super super nice!!!!

Interval training with the kids. 4x 4x400m. Between each 400m we would do some core strength exercises... I could feel that I haven't done running intervals for a long time and no core strength...

Jogging with Matti... Papi was that slow that he was worried Matti would complain about the snail tempo... but he didn't. Maybe he was also tired enough to enjoy the grandpa ride.

Backcountry skiing 43:00 intensity: (10:00 @1) + (33:00 @5) 6.22 km (6:55 / km) +899m 4:01 / km

Nocturne de la Berra.
At last weekend's competition I lost three times my ski, today I managed to loose it five times... maybe I need to change the bindings...
It is strange, because it is only at a specific angle on the uphill when the boot is at max flection that it opens up accidently. But I cannot reproduce on purpose the problem.
I finished 4th, 3min behind Vincent Mabboux who won.
I actually do wonder how I would do without technical toubles... kind of frustrating.

But it is not so relevant, because tonights outing I did it together with my wife. It was very nice to share this crazy adventure with her. She did her first skimo race... and that at night, even with a steep downhill in the middle of the course... and she survived... actually very well :-)!

Found a 250m uphill with some snow in Les Bugnenets... and did it 8x, 6 of them full speed (6x8.5min).

For the first time since before Xmas I felt good again, a great feeling to have the normal energy level back.

Backcountry skiing 1:29:43 [1] 10.35 km (8:40 / km) +778m 6:18 / km

Trying to figure out where tomorrows race is going through. Very poor information of the race and no markings in the terrain make it almost impossible.

Quick jog to test my health. Felt really tired and not recovered during the day... but on my test run up the stairs of le Chanet, I did a new PR in 2:24 (10 seconds faster then my second best time!?!). What a surprise.

4x Chanet stairs.
