Feeling much better. Whatever I had was super low level and today I skied for 90 minutes and felt more like myself. I still won't race tomorrow. There is way more to risk than to gain when getting over a little sickness and it rarely works out that you...
Travel over was pretty miserable. 12 hours of delays...divbr /divI was about to drop off my rental car in Boston after driving down from Vermont Monday when I fortunately got a call from Air France saying my 5:30 pm departure was moved to 9:30 pm since...

I'll get some pics up tonight but today was my first win of the season! It took a lap to get moving but I closed well and picked up 15 seconds on Lars who was second on the final lap. Now I've got to rest a bit and then go wax up skis since this trip I...
The Russia I see is a rugged place. Resting to the north and east of Paris, Madrid, Milano, backed up against Mongolia and sharing the Caspian Sea with Iran, perhaps this shouldn’t come as a surprise. br /br /a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImag...
It’s Tuesday, February 3, 2009 and I’m back in Ruhpolding, Germany after a two-week swing through the southern part of “Biathlon World”. Our latest world cup took place in Antholz, Italy – a beautiful venue and one of my favorite courses to race. It’s sits high up in a mountain valley, about as far north [...]
For the past ten days I have been getting back to work. Which means some HARD training. Since Christmas the training has really been pretty spotty. Super cold weather made the lead up to Nationals a lot easier that I had intended. Nationals being only ...
One of my fellow ITA athletes, a href="http://in-the-arena-matt.blogspot.com/"Matt Chisam/a sent out a query concerning nature vs nurture in regards to sports. I think nurture is much more important and nature only incidental. Below are my responses to...
These are the days we call glamour days. They are the days that are sunny and warm, yet the tracks are still firm. They are the days where you can head right out your front door and have hundreds of K of perfectly groomed trails to ski on, great sk...
I got the word after the race today that I am heading to World Champs! They aren't for a month so I am off to Stowe, VT to train for the next few weeks before I head over. Annie and Hazel are heading back there later this week so it will be good to see...
22nd in a World Cup isn't too bad and I did get my first World Cup points. With the smaller field and a few guys in front that I normally beat it was a little frustrating. I started off a little more conservatively than I normally do and all was going ...
After three years of working towards a top-five result in the relay, we finally reached that goal on Thursday night, here in Ruhpolding, Germany. It was an awesome feeling to be a part of the best relay finish in recent history for the U.S. Like I said, the relay has been a main focus since [...]
The first World Cup of the season is tomorrow. Today's sprint was a bit of a bummer for Team USA and APU with all but Newell getting knocked out in the quarter finals and Andy falling in the semi's. But all signs are positive for tomorrow. My pre-race ...
