Okay, so going by the theory (which I don't actually believe, by the way, but I'll use if it's useful) that you have x bad races and y good races per season I now officially have only x-1 bad races to go! And the ratio of good races to bad races is tipping in my favor! Yes, so we skied an uphill skate time trail this morning from Old Seward Hwy to the top of Prominence Point and, um, I was the third to slowest girl. Now you KNOW it's a bad race when you know your place counting up from last but not counting down from first...

The top three guys were James Southam 26:42 (Marwe), Mikey Mattsen 26:49 (some-kinda-fast skis), Lars Flora 27:06 (Marwe). Holly didn't have the women's splits done by the time we got back to the parking lot so I only have the top men for you.
