Well, I was second by only a few seconds because I was skiing sloppy.  Sunday was a tough 10k classic race in a blizzard.  It was hard to ski with good form in those kind of conditions.  Getting good kick was tricky as the snow was closer to freezing than I would like it.  My teammate Andre was 3rd and we crossed the finish line very close as he was my 15sec man (interval start race).  I never caught him but at the finish we both were certain we had skied very poorly and finished outside the top10.  I was very surprised to get a voice message on the way home saying I finished 2nd.  My Dad andI left the UP very quick to avoid as much of the weather as possible… that meant not staying around for awards… although we did have time to stop at Little Caesar’s for a $5 Hot-and-Ready pizza.
