Cross country ski from Fossum up to a hut with Thomas and Cristina. Ok conditions up top, but not so great near the lake lower down. Had to rewax twice since the ice kept taking our wax.

Warm up to Blindern with Thomas, and some more running with Tone, Lene and Thalia. Warm down to Major before we jumped on the tram the last part home. Its icy out there...

4 sprint loops starting at the same time as the other 3 girls. Got the longest one first... and thought I was way slower, but turned out it really was the longest one.

Bad weather meant we got home from Kongsberg later than hoped. Managed to drag myself out in the slippery conditions - and decided to go to Bislett. This was a mistake, because apparently after 7 the place is super crowded and no one believes in any sort of running etiquette... so I just got really grumpy.

Managed to make myself do 6 times 1 lap, varied in speed a bit partly because I was by myself and partly because of having to slow down when blocked by people passing each other slowly several abreast. Also, I run faster when pissed off... so the ones were someone yelled at me for being in the way are faster (one was my fault since I wandered out into the lane to start the intervals and was not paying attention, the other... well I did not deserve that one since it was just me running by myself on the edge of the lane relatively out of the way - compared to the large groups stopping and starting without looking around much).

Short classic ski in debatable skiing conditions in Kongsberg (seems they got less snow than Oslo, and they did not groom).

C • debatable? 5

6 times 10 minutes (with 2 minutes rest), generally uphill in the snow... tough. Did not push too much at first, easing into it (still a bit stuffy but feeling ok). Mostly off the back of the others, but with Thalia on the last few.
