Race day Lauantai(Saturday)

Second time trials through. Almost fell on 500m in first turn after 10,4 opener still ending with 40,4 time. On 1000m again shaking in the first turn but opening 18,0 which came as a small surprise but blacked out after that finishing with 1.19,8. But we have trained only slow laps and technique - so you skate slow. And still on such tough training it will take more than few days to recover properly. To give some comparison so far over four weeks I've been skating almost 60 hours.
Today 35 min Fahrtleg circuit and White elephant gift thingy with other skaters. It means that you buy a silly gift, wrap it and then everybody sets their gift on the ground and you take turns picking up a gift. The gift I brought was a beanie with honk-horn you usually see on childrens bikes screwed on top of the beanie. And in return I got two cupcakes.

Also today I was invited to have dinner with a man who works at Petit taking times during time trials. His grandfather came from Finland and such he knows few phrases in Finnish. It should be fun.I'm psyched about Pekka's huge recovery in Japan WC and everybody here sure knows how he did I'm taking care of that. Congrats to him also through here!
