Juniors' Relay

After a week of incessant damp cold and heavy fog down at the race venue, the sun finally made an appearance today. And the junior women's team medaled in the relay: fifth place! The men's team did well too, but Morgan Smyth, Sadie Bjornsen, Alexa Turzian and Liz Stephen all had solid races and fought their way into fifth. Sadie must of passed 8 people and she was keeping pace with the Norwegian skier who was about 100m ahead of her.

Crocker, Owen & I cheered for the races and got in a good hour's ski. It was sunny enough that we skied without our warm-ups on and frozen enough that the warm-up loop was enjoyably fast. Also cold enough that we went crust skiing over the fields to escape the monotony of the same old short warm-up loop. Fantastic day. Got a Toblerone bar for the trip home tomorrow.

One Toblerone? It's a long trip...you'll wish you had another! Oh, it was a sugar sink that I was asking about. My guess would be fine grainy snow and a lot of it...hard to maneuver through?
