Tomorrow Race Day

Saturday December 1st, 15km Skate race individual start.

Let's get all those butterflies flying in formation. The season is finally about to begin, I can't wait. I have a good start position tomorrow, mixed in with some faster guys, that will push me to hang on for a ride as long as I can if they catch me. Should be exciting. I'll try to get results up with a race review tomorrow afternoon.

Rest day in Vernon

Today is a rest day and we've decided to come down into Vernon, and we are staying with Pat and Karen McKee, who have graceously opened thier home for us to rest and relax, to take advantage of the lower altitude.

I have tried doing some slideshows, they are regretfully busy, and wouldn't open as one, so I apologize for the seizure inducing pages. But hopefully you get the idea of how beautiful it is here and awesome it is to be skiing this year in the season.

Silver Star B.C

Hi, I'm in Silver Star B.C, just outside of Vernon, and it's snowing. The snow has been sparse but it is starting to fall down now. We have a time trial tomorrow, hopefully we see how the travel and acclimatization has weathered our bodies. I have tried included some pictures from training in Thunder Bay a week ago, and some from recently here in Silver Star, but my computer savy skills are less than acceptable and it won't display the pictures. I will try again soon.

Triathlon Finish

What a great finish, talk about grit and never giving up. Solid Race boys.
