Love the Snow!

Happy 2009 Everyone!

I hope you all had great holidays. I had one of the best holiday seasons since I can remember. The first half I was in Canmore trying to stay warm while skate skiing and running with Dad's snowshoes. Our family dog was helpful to keep my pace up too! The second half of the holidays were in Nelson, which was also beautiful and we did more skiing with great snow.

Now I'm back in Victoria and will start a new challenge next week going back to school.

Reality Check

As usual it has been long overdue to update my blog..sorry!


I am now in North Vancouver and starting to get myself back into real life; I'm not sure if I really know what that is yet. Beijing was an amazing experience. If you received my email, or read the race report below you will know the race was really tough, but overall something I will never forget.
