Preparation for the Big Race

It is the Engadine Mountain Marathon Cross-country ski race this coming weekend and both SwissPiper and I are entered for the half-marathon. Consequently this week is about last few days training, getting the skis waxed and tuned and generally preparing. However, with typical Malcolm's Eye attention to fine detail this is also the week that the family and grandchildren arrive to Alpine Ski, but we will get it all fitted in somehow.
