AM - 8 miles.

PM - Ski Tour. We did three laps off Patsy Marley Peak's shoulder into Grizzly Gulch. Snow conditions weren't too bad (the couple inches that fell overnight softened things up a bit). Definitely a low visibility day, so we stayed in the trees.

PM - Ski Tour. Andrea and I left work just early enough to skin up and ski a few laps off the north side of Twin Lakes Pass before sunset. Incredible conditions - 21 inches of snow in 24 hours! I will gladly run in the slush all winter if we have lots more days like this. I am really loving my new skis and I've figured out the European style transitions, so life is good! [More Photos]

Finally sacked up and registered for the USA Cross Country Championships. An inevitable move since we already had plane tickets. From a performance standpoint, it could be ugly. But on the plus side I'll get a t-shirt and we will get to spend a fun weekend with all of my old housemates from Vail.

AM - Snow Leopard Dash rando/skimo event. Andrea and I were able to demo some Dynafit racing skis/boots, which made this extra fun. I was in the lead pack 30 minutes into the race and waiting to make a move when I had some equipment (skin) malfunction, and since I was on demo gear I didn't have my typical repair kit with me - I ended up having to DNF. Not really a bummer - I learned about a dozen valuable lessons and enjoyed being in the PDG setup. Andrea had some skin failure as well but still managed to finish, win some cash (which symbolically is nice in a sport that is otherwise a giant black hole for money), and then later on she won the raffle for a pair of new racing skis! So I guess that means we're getting into SkiMo for real. Awesome day. Not to mention a nice little post-race ski tour up to Patsy Marley Peak.

PM - 8 miles. Shorts weather... typical mid-January thaw.
