68 mile week. Take that, lack of motivation. You can’t get the best of me, despite your attempts at throwing -15 degree windchills at me for a long 18 miler today.

I went to Sisu skiers/Vakava practice on Thursday evening, and wow… today my hamstrings and glutes are REALLY sore :). It’s amazing how the marathon didn’t make me sore (hardly at all), but one testing session at practice could. It reminds me how much I have to work on! We did 4x1200m loops at Battle…
