We're Not in Australia Anymore.

This posting should actually have 2 titles, "Not Australia." and "How Not to Taper." This run was all Keiths' idea, as he wanted to take one last winter run into Skoki Lodge before they close for the season. I was keen because it is Skoki afterall, one of my favorite places and because our friend Michelle was joining us! But let it be known that I was bemoaning the fact that we both have a race next weekend and shouldn't we be tapering?? What do you do. There's not enough days in a week. I looked at my running program from last year and guess what?!? I ran in to Skoki the week before Diablo and I was O.K. We went for the run.

Not in Australia Anymore!!

Definitely, not in Australia.

Soooooo, Not in Australia.

Me, Michelle and Mount Temple (also not Australia.)

We were reminded by Keith to not step off the snowmobile trail. Shit happens when you step off the snow packed trail!! Do not step off the snowmobile trail!!

"No Leslie, you can't take the puppy home."

It was great to see Katie and her family, before they head off for a little off-season down time. They had some new additions at the lodge, Lucy the Jack Russell had some puppies! I accidently whacked this guys head on the edge of the table. I think the little dude was O.K, but for some reason the phrase "if you break it, you buy it!" went through my head.
