Gary and the climb to the castle

Good to see a fossil with a number on! This was taken at the 3k mark, on the traditional Fall US team training camp time trial. With some of our best Nordic racers, biathletes, and college skiers, Gary is back in the pack. I ran up to the 5k mark before the start of the race. It was almost sunny at the bottom, but got pretty raw after you climbed a few hundred vertical ... 20 mph gusts, light rain, and 40 degrees.
