On the Road Again

FasterSkierNovember 22, 2009

Whoa, it is nice to finally be on the road! The past week has been a whirlwind in preparation for leaving Sun Valley for the next 2 months! Despite the business of getting all the odds and ends finished before leaving, I was able to put in some final, quality workouts. My third ski of the season was a 13k skate time trial. The lack of snow and the compact trail made it a little difficult to get stability, but I tried to focus on staying smooth and relaxed. Now that I have been on snow a hand-full of times, I am beginning to feel more comfortable with the longer skis and adjusting to the balance.br /br /In addition to getting some quality workouts in last week, I enjoyed spending my last couple days with the kid’s at the YMCA. It is hard to believe that I won’t see them for 2 months! We had fun playing in the bouncy castle and the second grade girls surprised me by hiding the lockers!br /br /a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bfd1dFDmRWA/Swnkb5D4OgI/AAAAAAAAAgU/6o7hKayZmI0/s1600/ymca+pic+09+001.jpg”img style=”margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;” src=”http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bfd1dFDmRWA/Swnkb5D4OgI/AAAAAAAAAgU/6o7hKayZmI0/s320/ymca+pic+09+001.jpg” alt=”” id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5407103995459680770″ border=”0″ //abr /I am currently in West Yellowstone with all the other cross-country skiers in the country!
