Yesterday was the fourth race in the Calgary Road Runners x-country series and I had a great result, better than other races anyway. Officially I finished third but Luke Way was ghost running the race and finished just ahead of me, so fourth. 34:46 was my time but it was a relatively good run given the cold weather. The 9mm spikes really helped with the soft snow and poor footing. The terrain was difficult to run in, it was like running in sand half the race and by the second lap I was really starting to tire out. I held on to the place I was in, even though I could feel myself running slower and slower, by the end I was completely spent. At least I earned my soup at the end.

Today we worked hard on the trainer for a couple hours while watching "Overcoming" the story of team CSC during the 2004 Tour de France. Very inspiring but even a Z2 effort can seem difficult the day after racing, great motivation though.
