xc ski (skate) 1:00:00 [4]

Max effort with broken ski 45 minutes in...."duh, that's why you're working so hard". Thought I could double pole to the chalet but that was about as effective as bathing a kitten (probably looked the same too). Remove skis and run back. Thought about taking Bob's skis out when I returned but I got an apple cider instead and called it a day. Delicious refined sugar made it all better.

Snowshoe (Snowshoe Raid) 3:03:00 [3]

Teamed up with DD11. Excellent and fast conditions. Had a blast out there and I think Chris had a solid day on the map.

Two little bobbles - I may have been too firm 'sticking to our plan' which resulted in us getting to the map pick-up almost 10 minutes early. Brrrr! Second, I feel terrible that I couldn't help get us back on the map sooner (especially with lots of time spent playing in Loree Forest). I still struggle jumping from real life to the map...

Fantastic day, legs felt great and delighted to share the wonderful Dontgetlost community with my brother.

I think Bob surprised us all with an interesting twist to the race. Makes perfect sense since he spent the last few weeks snickering to himself in front of the computer. Well done, Bobby!

Thomass with Bob...we took turns and did every other until no. 7 (since I wanted to learn and he wanted to take it slow). Slow pace was a bit too fast for me to follow along during Bob's turn. Story of my life...

Great fun including post Thomass hot chocolate and just beat the snow storm home!
