Thursday practice and tuesday results

Tomorrow we will SKATE,SKATE,SKATE.

We will be at the Camp,  and they will have done some grooming.  Rock skis if you have them although snow coverage is really good.  I ran on snow shoes and checked the trail 4 or 5 places and found it a little stiffer than yesterday.  As I left it was snowing with big big flakes rather heavily.

Result from the predictor challenge 1.2k x 3

Annie 5:40, 5:50 and 5:37 total :13 what a pace machine!
Brian 5:50, 6:00 and 5:45 total :15 likewise
Kyle 4:48, 5:12 and 5:00 total :36 nice first lap effort
Melanie 5:18, 5:00 and 5:00 for :36 and an :18 negative split, winner second lap.  Exact last two laps!
Daniel 4:48, 5:00 and 5:08 for :32 with kyle the fastest first lap.
Mitch 6:28, 6:45 and 6:20 for :25
Rachel 7:40, 7:45 and 710 for :35 and a :30 negative split!
 

Best predictor for pace is Annie and Brian
Best negative split is Rachel and Mel
 

A predictor is a series of intervals and the idea is to ski the first one flat out and then ski the same time,  negative splits indicate either a technique improvement or a more max effort.  This was a really good workout.  Note the skis were not equal, Mitch had really really slow skis as did kyle.  Daniels were kinda slippery, Mels may have been a little draggy.
