Cross Country Skiing Season Begins

11/24/2012

0 Comments

 
About 10 cm of snow fell last night. Conditions at the ski centre are good and there are, apparently, 15 k of trails open for skate skiing. I am going later this morning and am eager to begin the season. My overall goal for the season is 800 k. For those interested you can check out the conditions at: Kamview Nordic Centre. It is a facebook page but you do not need to be on facebook to access it.

I went out this afternoon and conditions are good. Soft in some spots but overall very good conditions. Picked up my skis at the place I go to get them waxed and was informed that they many need to be stone ground as the wax was not adhering that well After this first ski, they are still black with no white spots...so far so good. I did not go out at all last year so it has been awhile since I have been out. Busy winter coming up but i hope I can find the time to get in my 25 k a week. I will update here just as an accountability to me. Today I completed 12. 5 k which is not too bad for the first time out in a long while, I will try for 18 k tomorrow and time myself but we will see how I feel. Nice to be out. Not too cold. A pretty good sized crowd there today but the trails always seem quiet which is nice.

Happy Winter All!!!

    My Pensées

    The title of this blog is an allusion to the famous work of Blaise Pascal.  This blog represents the variety of my interests and thoughts on any given day and are  strung together, like Pascal's Pensees, in no particular order. I work in the field of mental health,  education, and human rights. I write and am a human rights advocate. I enjoy poetry, jazz, spirituality, politics and a potpourri of other interests that you will see reflected in this blog.
