Mt. Snow Mt. Bike National Championships

Photos & lots of them!



Last weekend I met my little Bella girls at Mt. Snow to watch our hometown star Lea Davison rock it on the trails. Above you can click the link to see more photos.

Climb To Mt. Top

Today I had my first roller ski race down in Rutland, Vermont. An 11k climb up to Mt. Top. To give you an idea it's a mass start race, where we have about 400 meters before we start climbing for a few k. The first climb was very nice, I had to put together a plan this year, there were a few girls in the race that are very strong skiers. I couldn't go out to hard risking bonking, so I jumped behind a very young & talented skier, Keely Levins for about 2 k. The group stayed together for a few K, until I decided it was time to spread out the field. For a little while I was worried I had made a move to soon.



My attack broke up the race and for a few k I skied on my own until Alex Jospe caught me. We skied together trying to fend of the other skiers, I felt very good on the flat section...than we reached the final 3k. The steepest 3k of my life...I put my head down and went. Many times I skied hard in fear that Alex was going to beat me, I could hear her poles gripping the pavement behind me, they always sounded like they were coming closer and closer. Than I saw the 200m sign and knew I could win this race. It was a good hard race with some very good girls there.



Below is video from the race. Very early on. We all look rested & relaxed!

errr...sorry it has taken me so long!

I know...I hear ya! It has been to long since my last post. It gets a little busy in the summertimes!
My days are amazing right now, CRAZY busy just the way I like it...though it truly is amazing that I keep anything together with all that I am doing! Sometimes I am reminded to jump about 5 miles up into there air to take a quick breather and see everything else that is going on around me...makes me feel a little better when i am overwhelmed. Just think how small each one of us is.
I am working hard at work, things here are going really well. Training is also going well, mondays I am taking off from training & putting in some extra hours at the office, while Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday I am off the wall busy with catamount outdoor center 5ks & mountain biking after work. On the weekend I live out every min. to the max with training & seeing my friends, until the most exciting part of my weekend begins...The Little Bella Mountain Bike Mentoring program for girls from 6-14. IT'S AMAZING...On that note, I have a little more work to do & will update more next week on the Little Bellas.

Made it in the paper

ok...turn up your radio & blast! Rocking this! RAH! LOUDAH! I have been commuting to work the past few weeks, it's amazing what I hear. Either out the window by angry road raged rednecks, over dosed steroid meat heads & rich chicks on their cell phones doing everything besides driving a straight line. Of course I get a kick out of all of this because, really...let's think about this for a second...

My life rocks...in the fast lane, it's glamouris! No diamond rings, but hey, I got good friends that rock, all my adventures all around the world & of course I have one of the coolest jobs every...people would kill to work where I work. First class, in the fast lane.

So of course when I am being hollahed at hearing all these crazy things that I don't wanna, I just think about all the rocking I get to do & I have to laugh! Because really is it that lame for you that I ruin your day...because I am on the side of the road...hahahaha...muuuahahahahaha. Listen what I say:

LOOK AROUND...you see what I see?

Nothing...keep driving & rocking it to all your outragious music...turn up your radio, blast your sterio & RIDE! I never hear much you all hallah anyways!

& ANOTHER video!

I know, I have been on a video rampage! I'm "ramping" up for more writing! 2008/2009 season is about to start for me, I am ready to go! This spring I spent playing soccer, mt. biking, running, tennis, a little basketball a lot of alpine skiing & of course a little dancing along with A LOT of cooking! I have been a cooking machine the past few weeks, amazing how far I have come since I first started cooking in college! When of course my roommates would tell me it tasted great; but I knew the truth, I tasted it too!
Here is another video! Just FYI, it's close to the previous one, just has a few more pictures & a much better music selection in my mind ;-)

2008 Season movie!

End of season Movie, Country Music style! If you don't like Country music wait a few days & another movie will be up with better music selection. I buy music with my I-tunes but I can't use it in any other program :-( still trying to figure it out...in the mean time this is what I had to work with in Windows!
