Arrived at 10 AM and did the JD Downing Exie Oregon work out my pace was pretty good then. After that I skied easy with first Hilary and Tina and then only Tina, hearing about her Finland border border tour that is upcoming. After that my average pace was about 530 and I went down to Ollies, which got it fast but then climbing out slowed it down again. at that point I went and change clothes just my top, but I didn’t have enough food and I went up at eight a bunch of food drank a bunch of water, grabbed another water bottle and then finished my 18 K that I had to do. My goals were to do 45K or 4 1/2 hours which ever came first of active skiing. There was a lot of standing around but it was definitely hard both mentally and physically at this altitude and because I have done a time trial of the 18 km just two days ago. All in all I’m very happy with my progress .
