FasterSkier photographer Win Goodbody once again captured the first efforts of the season (well at least the first time they had on a bib) for many of the racers in the men’s distance race at the SuperTour in West Yellowstone.
I’m psyched to be back in Vermont and skiing on snow (although that might not last long), but I had a really wonderful Thanksgiving with my family, and I miss them, too. I traveled to Irvington, Virginia to see my aunt, uncle, cousins, and grandparents. I hadn’t seen my dad’s family in a couple of [...]
Lone Mountain in Big Sky- Montana!
As we work our way into the racing season, our hours of training start to decrease slowly and the intensity levels rise. This creates an influx of free time, especially while at a training camp or while racing. A big part of being able to perform at a high level regularly is making sure you are getting enough rest in between workouts and races. We all stretch, dryfire, sleep and practice other good recovery activities...

While the rest of the GRP took off early Monday morning last week, I managed to grab an extra hour or so of sleep before embarking on a marathon of bus rides to Aare, Sweden. In fact, my teammates made it back to Craftsbury on Monday before I made it to my friend’s house in [...]

This is a picture of the ski tracks from our hotel here in Ostersund. I think the potato count is officially over 30 now, not that I am keeping track anymore… Besides the lack of culinary variety, everything is going pretty well here. Winter is definitely in full force here and the temperatures have continued [...]
Awoke to a veritable heatwave here in Ostersund: -17C (1.4F). Last night, training temps bottomed out at -21C (-6F), which felt very cold and made shooting a little more challenging than normal. I took a few pics after training this morning in the two or three hours of sunlight that flirted with the tops of [...]

Aside from some frozen toes and fingers (temps still between -17 and -14 most of the time), the action in Kuusamo just keeps getting better (though photos are somewhat limited). Bjorgen continues her lead with a second win today while Cologna took over the top spot for the men (the top two Norweigian men did not compete today). A total of 15 athletes who started the tour did not compete today an will not continue...
