I’ve been rather slow to reply…but, I skied the typical 30 km at Birch on March 21.  I had planned to do all 50 km that day, but the river had other plans.  Life didn’t allow time again until Thursday, March 26. I ski low tech, so I’ve got nothing but my word (3 hr for 30 km (which I did with Johnna Underwood)) and about 1:50 for the random 20 km at Birch—cut off some of White Bear and some of the blacks).

I am not looking to have a big write up—or any at all ️—on the website.  Just listed on the standings…for no reason other than just because. .

Last year I entered and had to leave town for emergency eye surgery for my then 2 year-old.  I was very much looking forward to a normal spring…well, I need to say no more.  Skiing makes life feel a little bit normal…I’m sure that’s true for many of us.

Thank you to all of you that have taken the time to make this happen. It has been a fun way to be connected in some way and to see people encourage each other and to be encouraged…thanks to Bad Bob and the MANY others that help—sorry I can’t thank you all by name!!!  Enjoy the sun, snow…and whatever is ahead.  Be well!!!
