XC Skiing 1:18:03 15.5 km (11.9 kph) +323m
ahr:131 max:203
Classic loop of Highlands while it's still cool.
Variable conditions, from excellent grip to no grip to no tracks at all in the open fields, but still a great ski especially compared with home conditions.
I tried the Mio wrist HRM on my right wrist, but it was clearly not right much of the time.

XC ski-Skate 14:35 3.41 km (14.0 kph) +82m
ahr:169 max:192
I went a little further, up the hill where the skate skis are misery stix, then around and down where they just fly. My knee said this is enough for now.
Note Mio worked better on my left wrist next to the Garmin.

Some pull-ups, KBs and dumbells then Jeff Stapleton's natural running clinic with a whole whack more exercises. I'm going to have to quit my job to fit it all in.

Slushy icy run in the rain with AD. Ugh.Spikes barely adequate.
Running 27:00 [3]

Run home on slush and ice. New shoes arrived and I installed the spikes.
Nice to have dry feet, and I luckily got the mail-order size right.

Orienteering 24:00 [5] 4.0 km (6:00 / km) +100m 5:20 / km
shoes: Salomon Snowcross
Rest of the race- guessing distance.
Lots of climbing in and out of the valley. Hiro and I chased Mick for much of it, but legs were gassed on the last hill and I got passed by Nick and Andre and finished 5th in a fairly close pack.
No big disasters this time, but knowing the area wasn't all that much help.
Good event, nice use of the terrain. I think the small box favoured runners and climbers.
