Telemark Skiing 5:30:00 [4]

Awesome day at A-Basin. While it was sunny and warmish on the Front Range, it was snowing furiously in the mountains making for a cold but awesome day.

I also felt like I had a breakthrough in my Tele skills. Blacks no longer seem so steep, and I am able to descend them with some style. Plus, moguls no longer seem so daunting as I can switch from one turn to the next much easier and efficiently. I'm happy!!

Orienteering (Ski O!!) 1:30:45 [4] ** 10.5 km (8:39 / km)
spiked:12/13c

Ski Orienteering meet (Score O style) at Snow Mountain Ranch! I'm not a great skate skier but I still found all but two controls, and I crashed, and I took off my skiis and ran it in for the last 100 meters... A fun day!

Distance is approximate...(and slow too! for skis)

Trail Run 38:54 [3] 5.01 mi (7:46 / mi)
shoes: Brooks Cascadia-Lighting Blue!

Ahhh, the power of daylight as a motivator. Ran right at sunset under a Chesire Cat Moon, my favorite.

I also noticed a reason why my achiles becomes inflamed. When I run using my full stride, eg. a race or intervals, at a slower pace, I seem to aggravate my achiles.

Anyone know, biomechanically, why this is, or is it a matter of my achiles not being strong enough to handle my full stride at a slower cadence. With race or interval pace there's no problem...

C • this would be a pure guess on ... 3
