I did some laps at Brighton today and was rewarded for putting the skins back on and pointing 'em back up hill one last time. Got in 7,000 for the day, but other than Thanksgiving, the rest of the week looks grim.
Speaking of Thanksgiving...
Anyone want to get together for a turkey ski trot? I'm thinking of an informal race on a course we all agree on, with a handicap for those with heavy gear...something like a head start for extra ounces?
I'd do it Sherpa - just so you could be amused - but I'm still a few days out from getting my foot into a ski boot for anything, I fear. Was hoping I could carry on a Thanksgiving tradition of skiing, but at this point, that seems overly optimistic and would probably set my recovery back by two weeks! Bummer, but I did this to myself (so I won't complain).
ReplyDeleteAs for that handicap, when the race comes around, I'll put in for you carrying TWO gallons of water, since weight on the feet is not the same as weight in a pack.
Hope you and yours enjoy the holiday!
