Week 4 - Day 2 (and the weekend!) - Row intervals and OHS



Wow, I'm really far behind! Let's catch up, shall we?

Saturday - My first real super-tour of the season! Headed up Red Pine at 7:00 with the goal of skiing White Baldy. I was drinking Gatorade instead of water and I knew pretty quickly that it was a bad idea. My stomach was cramping all the way to the lake and by the time we got there, I was feeling pretty shitty. I'm guessing the combo of 1/2 bottle of red wine, 32oz gatorade, and a black bean burrito was not working out to my advantage. My hands were freezing and my body was falling apart. I told the guys to head up White Baldy while I dug a little lounge chair in the sun and relaxed. It was exactly what I needed and by the time they got back down, I was feeling better. Next item of business was heading over the ridge to Lake Peak.

We skiied the East coulier, which was AWESOME. Testosterone mixed with a beautiful day resulted in a third peak - Red Baldy. We slogged up the east-facing bowl for the best run of the day, hands down. 8 hours total, about 7K vertical. Pretty impressive.

Sunday - off. Not much more to say. Yard work and lounging.
