merry Christmas

Today has been one of reflection as it usually is for me. I am reminded of the countless wonders I have to be thankful for. The love and care of my family and friends. To live in reletive plenty and health. So easily taken for granted and so easily taken.

To everyone my wishes of peace and comfort.

Merry Christmas

Snow making at Wirth park

I went out to see how the snow making was going at wirth today. Here are a few shots. Looks like they have a ways to go yet but hopfully we'll be skiing soon.

Here is a quick bit of video I shot a couple weeks ago of some rollerskiing.

It a couple of my friends doing a quick sprint.

In other news... there isn't much:) Still just waiting fir snow. Dry land training is getting old. Enough with the methadone lets get some of the good stuff going here! Some of the regional parks will start making snow this week. It is possible I could be skiing man made snow by mid next week. I am keeping my fingers crossed for that. Hopefully I'll have some skiing pictures for you soon.

Weight lifting and running has me consistently really really sore. I am just not a good runner that's for sure. It makes my legs sore as hell. It's my first season of running I suppose like all of this stuff your body needs time to get used to a new stimulus. I figure spending park of my training year doing a bit of running is probably not a bad idea from a big picture point of view.
