Man On A Roll: Brian Gregg

FasterSkierJanuary 20, 2010

If I were asked to name the one athlete on the circuit this year who is excelling to great heights, one who deserves such excellence, I would name Brian Gregg. A local Methow skier who races for CXC Team Vertical Limit out of Wisconsin, Brian and I grew up together racing and training. This season he has reached a new level of success, finishing in the top-10 three different times at US Nationals in January and qualifying for the Canmore World Cups in early February. More than anyone else out there I believe Brian is deserving of this success for his humility and quiet dedication, and I’m psyched to see a fellow Methow native doing so well! It’s been great to have a few training sessions with him while he’s been in the Valley, as well as to race alongside him in last Saturday’s sprints at the Methow SuperTour.br /br /div style=”text-align: center;”a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Mg2hQbkHkNs/S1eLf50ac9I/AAAAAAAAAV4/Iclw6Wgvc3g/s1600-h/IMG_3639.JPG”img style=”margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;” src=”http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Mg2hQbkHkNs/S1eLf50ac9I/AAAAAAAAAV4/Iclw6Wgvc3g/s320/IMG_3639.JPG” alt=”” id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428961256031286226″ border=”0″ //aspan style=”font-style: italic;”Brian leading out a semi-final in last weekend’s sprints (Photo courtesy Kristen Smith/span)br //divbr /Good luck, Brian – you’ve got the MOD Squad and the whole Valley behind you!br /br /div style=”text-align: center;”a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Mg2hQbkHkNs/S1eMWKfgLEI/AAAAAAAAAWA/Po4wKJkfS1E/s1600-h/Snoqualmie+Sprints+3.jpg”img style=”margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;” src=”http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Mg2hQbkHkNs/S1eMWKfgLEI/AAAAAAAAAWA/Po4wKJkfS1E/s320/Snoqualmie+Sprints+3.jpg” alt=”” id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428962188219919426″ border=”0″ //aspan style=”font-style: italic;”Brian, his brother Chad, and I racing back in high school – faster every year!br //span/divdiv class=”blogger-post-footer”img width=’1′ height=’1′ src=’https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2910103639238326543-7505610570569934291?l=methowolympicdevelopment.blogspot.com’ alt=” //div
