The first races are less then 20days away- actually they are only 14 days away!!!
I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous...but for once its not a "terrified" feeling. Its just a calm sense of nervousness, enough to keep me sharp, but allow be to go to sleep (most of the time)!!
I haven't skiied yet...tomorrow I'm heading to Lake Louise to ski on Moraine Lake Road- word has it they are rolling a track tonight, either way I will be skiing! There is also a 6minute loop at the nordic centre- now I could have been an "uber keener" and do my 4hr distance workout on a 6minute loop, this would have equated to 40 loops!!! Even I'm not that crazy!!
Other then that- I've been watching webcams and checking the weather network every five minutes in hopes that the weather pattern changes within those five minutes! Yes, I know I should be working, but I've become good at minimizing the screen or using the excuse "I was just checking the weather to see if the painters can finish tomorrow!".
Things are otherwise going well, I'm loving training right now and actually enjoying the warm weather because I know soon enough it will be insanely cold!!- I'm excited to get on snow and I am excited to race- I feel like I've put in a lot of solid hours of training and a lot of focus this year- so hopefully it will turn out to be a great race season!!
Keep doing your snow dance and check back soon for some photos from Silver Star!
