It snowed two days in a row…what more needs to be said?

Okay, so maybe I haven’t written on here as regularly as I might have hoped.  Perhaps there are many members of the Nordic ski community who have anxiously been waiting to read more about my thrilling life.  However, I have been waiting for many things myself.  I suppose we all have our own burdens to bear. 

I include here an entry I wrote for our blog at Camp Gray.  For the purposes of training, I would add that I got in some solid easy hiking last Friday and Sunday, with 16 miles of fast paced, action packed hiking on Saturday…all with poles, of course.  It was a great way to get away from Camp and get some quality training in elsewhere, as well as another rare opportunity to train with a group of people…

There are several reasons to be joyful about my training recently…

1)I can feel myself getting stronger and fitter

2)I am definitely recovering from that awful illness I had a couple weeks ago

3)It will probably start snowing next week and not stop until June

4)The colder weather has made working out so much more comfortable
