Today I did a 1hr xc-ski. The conditions were incredible. Its -4C here today, not a cloud in the sky. Snow has melted and re-frozen a bit and been groomed and skied. This makes for this sugary consistency that is fantastic to ski on. Too bad I spent most of the ski doing the fatman skate… I don’t even know what its called really, its not offset, not one-skate or two-skate, its this hybrid classic skate technique you do when your fat and can’t offset up hills. P9 to Huron, back down trail 1 past shilly shally.

It’s not like we’re BC or AB here, but every trailhead starts with a 2-3km climb. If you aren’t fit, its hard. I’m not fit. Still, I had an amazing day. A good for the soul day.

Workout: 1hr XC Ski XC Tip: Wax is for fags. Unless you’re super fit, and speed really makes a difference who really cares. One Fat Man hasn’t waxed skis in 7yrs or so… and they still seem to glide just fine.
