Silverstar- Camp #1

The skiing was better then it was last November minus the cold! However we did get quite a bit of fresh snow the first few days we were there which at first I wasn't overly thrilled about, but as soon as the sun came out, the camp seemed like a holiday (that may be a bit of a stretch, but for those who work full time/flex time you will probably understand me when I say that training camps are like holidays!).

Most of the time I come out of training camps feeling better then when I went into them, this is mostly due to the fact that I actually have time to do the little things, something I need to do a better job of while at home.

The new team is great! It was amazing to see the improvements in everyone and also the lack of complaining that accompanied most training sessions last year. Overall I think we are coming into the spring a whole lot fitter as a group then we were last spring.

We also had our first time trial/ race. To be honest it felt pretty good and although I was dead tired the next day, it was so fun to push hard!

...now its time to see if Canmore decides to have a summer, right now it doesn't appear that way!
