New skis

So I got myself some new skis. These are meeting the requirements of the Northshore roller ski marathon (the Skikes didn't). I took them out for a spin or roll i guess. I need to adjust my technique from skikes as the roller skis are less stable sideways. I didn;t have too much problem, but I am happy the Northshore marathon is a couple of weeks away.......

I am actually ski skating

Been a while since I wrote, but I have a good excuse: I've been too busy ski skating to spend time in front of a computer......

So far I have done 115 miles on the Skikes and imprived my speed with 52% since the first attempt. Longest single workout so far 14 miles.

In September I plan to do a 26.1 miles real rollerski race. Skikes are not allowed so now I need to buy rollerskis and ski skating boots.
