Race Day!
Sunday, January 31st, 2010I am not even exaggerating when I say this is the first time I have had to sit down and write about the Seeley Hills Classic. I am happy to report that it was a good day for the Camp Gray ski team though! (more…)

Race Week
Monday, January 11th, 2010It is Sunday, the start of a new week. For me, it is a race week. Perhaps the only race week I will have this year. (more…)
It’s ski time!
Thursday, December 24th, 2009I have no idea how it’s been five whole weeks since I updated this thing…Writing on the ‘ol blog has been on my to-do list for way too long. The past month seemed to be the busiest of the whole year so far… (more…)
Pain Free?
Thursday, November 12th, 2009Last weekend I tried to do a double pole workout, but my silly elbow started hurting again 20 minutes in. Great. At the first sign of pain I stopped and no-poled it back home. (more…)
Grad School
Friday, October 23rd, 2009Today I visited a friend’s second grade classroom. When I told her students that I still go to class and have homework, they couldn’t believe it. ”You STILL go to school?” I can’t believe it either. (more…)
Gross
Saturday, September 26th, 2009Yesterday I had a delightful L1 hike at Mirror Lake State Park. Imagine my surprise when I found a stomach and intestines everywhere on the trail… (more…)
Routine?
Tuesday, September 8th, 2009Working in ministry or at a camp can both be pretty random jobs. Good thing my job is both of this. Here we are, well on our way to the middle of September and I am still trying to get back into a training routine. (more…)
Epic Fail
Wednesday, August 26th, 2009I’m back! And ready to admit that my efforts to keep up with a blog during the summer resulted in an epic fail. My efforts to increase my fitness may or may not have been a failure. I suppose it depends on how you look at it… (more…)
Change of Plans
Friday, June 26th, 2009The first week of summer camp went really well. I got in some decent training hours throughout the week and then had an epic training day on Saturday which left me needing a rest day on Sunday. Week 2 was going to prove more challenging since my 2 1 hour breaks were in the afternoon and not back to back. I was going to manage just fine though considering I was leading moutain biking in the morning. I could also get to bed earlier because my kids were older and didn’t wake me up in the middle of the night. It turns out that none of this even mattered, though. We got a couple staff members here with H1N1 and on Tuesday we had to close camp and send the kids home. (more…)
Summer Training Plan
Thursday, June 11th, 2009So, today is the last full day of summer staff training and I have my training plan for the next 9 weeks in place. Training during the summer will be challenging, but I will have more time for it than I have had during staff training. The past 10 days have started with optional prayer at 7:30, and ended with our small groups usually around 10. We always had 1 hour off…immediately after lunch. This has been a less than ideal situation, making it impossible to get do all my workouts and get enough sleep. (more…)
