Training

We're in the thick of it around here.

JC, Brandon, Sigurd

The Tahoe boys and their coach.

Michaela, Natalie, Skippy, Hannah. Early in a 4-hour rollerski last Saturday.

Imagine how good this photo would be if it wasn't so blurry.

Marine

After our 4-hour rollerski workout, brunch at Andrew's house (thank you for the waffles, Andrew!) Somehow I feel like there's more to this scene than is obvious at first glance, though I don't know exactly what.

Agility training the other day included some non-traditional elements.

After a brutal crash in an early round, Marcus the senior came through to win the final round to show the underclassmen how it's done.

Jenna

It's been several years since anyone broke a leg during UAA's agility training.

  

Anna

Michaela. Under full power.

I met JC's mom last weekend. She told me she hadn't heard a word from her son since he left home and moved to Alaska, so she had to travel here herself to see whether he's still enrolled in college classes, or whether he's grown a shaggy beard and disappeared into the wilderness to live in an abandoned bus.  I promised Marty I'd include a photo of JC in the blog now and then, just to let her know that he's still with us.

Brandon

Tom was, without question, the dominant sprinter on this day, winning every round decisively.
