I’m in Grande Cache now. The drive here was fine, although probably a little fast. The rain didn’t bode well.
At the orientation session we were told it was a dry course this year. I don’t know how that works but I’m willing to go with it. The speaker was very inspirational. So afterwards it was, “Wow! I’m pumped. Let’s go to bed.”
The chief piece of advice: Go slow and conserve your energy. No one ends strong.
