Birkie! Having no training this year, this was going to be my longest ski this winter by a factor of three. So tourist ski, which I was cool with. I only had one goal, which was to destroy the trail enough along the way along that dad couldn't catch up to me. First half of the trail was pretty crappy, so I didn't even have to do much.

Lined up in the back of wave one, cause I didn't want to bother fighting in the start. It was pretty annoying and stop and go for the first 15k, but cleared out eventually. Didn't feel peppy for the rest of it, but didn't feel terrible either, so not bad. Held 4 min/k the whole time, which I'm ok with.

Airplane fail. My flight out of Reno showed up super late, so I wasn't going to make the next connection and there's nothing else to MSP tonight. Now I get there tomorrow afternoon. No Korte for me. Which is bad, because after months of tapering, that was going to be my training for Saturday (which in turn is my training for ski-o). Messing up the whole season's training plan.

Also I had managed to drive down to Reno during the break in today's storm, so the roads were clear, but it was back in full swing by the time I headed back home. Chains all the way from the bottom of the canyon, and non-subaru carcasses littered all over the highway and the glenshire hill. And I get to do it all again at 4 this morning.
