Mix of sun and clouds, temps in the mid to high 20s. SG race day. I ran DFL in a field of roughly 120. First run was delayed due to injury and a few reruns. Eventually I went, and I was dreadful. I came into the first pitch way too direct and dumped speed, and then just was awwwwful down the final pitch. Just stuck between the skis and basically powersliding around. Finished well back, in the middle of the pack.

Second run had a bit more swing, and I was ripping until I threw a shoe on the basketball turn near slalom start. Went down pretty hard, but no major damage. At least I had 2/3 of a good run.
