We woke, we took the temperature and WE RACED! It was a 5/10k freestyle – top 12 results are below. br /br /My back held strong today (although I am out of shape after my time off). That is all I could really have hoped for so I am content. I was 19th, 1:15.3 out.br /br /Tomorrow is now a race day with a 10/15k classic scheduled. I will not be doing the classic events this week, but have intervals (classic) scheduled for tomorrow. It will be my third hard workout since West Yellowstone, over a month ago and my first classic interval test. br /br /Sometimes you just have to swallow today and start getting fired up about tomorrow.br /br /a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_PPMeqZXka1Y/SWK1tO3ZOSI/AAAAAAAAAes/iL5-Nb2As8A/s1600-h/IMG_0147.JPG”img style=”margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 170px;” src=”http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_PPMeqZXka1Y/SWK1tO3ZOSI/AAAAAAAAAes/iL5-Nb2As8A/s400/IMG_0147.JPG” alt=”” id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5287988701175560482″ border=”0″ //aa onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_PPMeqZXka1Y/SWK1tSq3m2I/AAAAAAAAAe0/I3TbLzjfaCA/s1600-h/IMG_0148.JPG”img style=”margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 141px;” src=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_PPMeqZXka1Y/SWK1tSq3m2I/AAAAAAAAAe0/I3TbLzjfaCA/s400/IMG_0148.JPG” alt=”” id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5287988702196767586″ border=”0″ //abr /Congratulations to Caitlyn on the win, Alexa for returning from surgery and rocking a 7th!!! and to Nicole De Yong, who looks as if she found that sweet-spot
