At Trapp Family - drove up with Beth & dogs, left 0600. Around 40F & windy at 9a arrival. Got some temp appropriate yellow fluoro wax from Jim A. Saw Coach at one point where I elected to remove my skis - took maybe a minute to get them back on. Not a good idea to take off - groove in boots fills with packed snow, map holder doesn't allow easy access to "ground floor" & maybe balance issue chipping in too.
Saw Larry B for a few points, could not keep pace with him either. Then Sharon came by - at one point, the 3 of us were standing at a control - an easy 105 yrs of 'hanging out' with O. Really quite tired by finish, napped in car for about 50' then drove off to Burlington. Mediocre technique & no surprise. Needs work & more work, might have stayed for clinic but low on energy - spitting rain fm a gray sky not motivating either.
