UGH!!! I new I was in trouble with all of the snow that arrived earlier this week. I knew it would not melt off the further north you go on the trail. Just as I had predicted 4-10 inches and only ATV tracks to follow, that spells disaster for me.
I wore my screw shoes in hopes of not falling on my face, I was able to stay barely upright for most of the race. Lots of twisted ankles, lots of banging my calves with the other shoe and leaving enough scrapes to draw blood.
I am disappointed that I was not able to hang with the women I had raced with 3 weeks ago, have they been closet training???
It took me 44 minutes to reach the turn-around and 39 minutes for the return trip.
Sometimes I wonder if I went hard enough...I can tell if I went hard enough when I am still sweating after my shower. Yes, I am. Anyone know the reason for this?
Oh well, gotta learn and move on.
