XC ski-Skate race (Ski-o) 35:45 [4]
Ski-o Sprint Scenic Caves
Perfect bluebird day, spring skiing.
I didn’t really make any mistakes, but took 1 sub-optimum route choice, and ended up in a pack with The Ryddler, Milla and some fast male Mac racers.
Milla Tarno ended up winning overall!

Running 1:05:00 [3]

I got smart and used snowshoes until I reached the conservation area, then bushed them and ran in shoes. Slushy in spots, lumpy on the night run home with BZdog.

Feeling pretty good today.
We used poles both days on the weekend, which seemed to preserve my knee nicely.

Snowshoeing 6:46:35 [3] 28.89 km (14:04 / km) +574m 12:48 / km
Snowgaine day 2.
Always a bit rough waking up on day 2.
Sadly we'd decided again not to ski due to road-running sections. Bash had packed a spare set of snowshoes so I used those. I was on my spare compass too.
Bright, sunny and a bladder-hose-freezing -17 to start but warmed up throughout the day to almost spring skiing weather.
Bash had seen that we were doing surprisingly well on day 1 (Leading our Masters Co-ed category) so stayed up late rethinking our plan for max points rather than an easier day out.
We got a lot of controls fairly early on in the western end, before heading North and around.
Bash's nav was right on, and we executed the extended plan well, getting some of the controls that were a bit of a stretch goal.
Great ending to a weekend of excellent racing. Bash and I had a ton of fun and raced well, despite my equipment issues.
Official results aren't in yet, but WT (Bob and Scotty) cleaned the course and finished early for the overall win.
Harps and Jack also cleaned the course to win open male.
Alex Provost and Karine won Co-ed.
Bash and I won our category too, although it's unclear if they called us Super-Veteran, Veteran co-ed or Veteran. If it was Veteran, WT was in our category so we would be second to them.
