The last week.............

Trained Tuesday with the team that Randy is going to use this weekend at Valcartier (about an hour north of Quebec City at a ski and tubing resort!! with lots of restaurants!!)  He is still questioning whether Frodo can keep up if the trail is fast - which it should be = Simon the owner of the resort, has a beautiful trail groomer and his trail is ususally the best because they keep it groomed for cross country skiing - and Randy already knows how the trail goes because this is our 3rd year there - so no scary parts (though he says there is one pretty sharp corner - it will be a good test of how the Danler sled handles!!!)

Yesterday was a rest day and only cleaned house and cooked....
Today was training for fun so went 5 miles with the same team - Frodo looked good so I guess he will get to race at least the first day!  Also cleaned boxes again................it seems like more of them are peeing in them more.......like in protest!

So tomorrow final departure for racing from the Bellerives - tonite we are having dinner - it's ususally a pretty sad event - the time goes by so fast and it seems like we never have had enough time to spend together - they have been especially busy with work and the centennial that Melanie directed in February.

I will update you on trail conditions when we get to the race site tomorrow afternoon!!

So, do you guys get a winter playground pass with your registration to race? If not, you should! :) The website said they're having the course go through the "winter attraction playground site" for the first time - hopefully, that doesn't mean huge distractions for the team! I hope they're speedy about posting the results! :)
Drive safe and have fun!
