Event: Salomon Snowshoe Raid
 

As always the snowshoe RAID is a great race to get out in the middle of winter and really feel like a canuck. With Audrey on the sidelines this year Eddie and I dusted off his compass and signed up for this always tough race.

We had a great time out in the woods and I felt like we pushed as hard as we could for the full 3 hours. Had a great time racing with Eddie again and I felt like with the course this year there were a lot less elephant tracks to just follow in the woods compared to years past.

Very little leg work today, just upper body and core. Don't want to be any more tired tomorrow in the legs than I need to be.

I suspect my 4 week taper will make this hard enough. At least my last long run before this race was a good one.

Down to Bingeman's and back. Probably needed a headlamp for this one as the sun didn't really come out until the turn around. I got a few soakers on the run as I couldn't see where the ice was thin in places.

Some loops around Bechtel park. The elephant trails are now nice and stamped down making it really nice to be out running in.
