I hope everyone is enjoying the fall like weather and getting ready to dust off the skis!
The leaves are changing colors here in Park City and the mornings are getting a little chillier. This is one of my favorite times of the year, not only because of the beautiful colors, but also because the ski season is just around the corner! I have been training hard here in Park City and I feel like I am making progress both on the cross country side and and ski jumping side! Last week was a rest week and I focused on ski jumping. This week we have started to increase on the hours of training again. I started the week off with a long easy distance roller ski around Park City. Tuesday we were back on the HS100 again. The session went really well! I jumped with more confidence and I finished the session on a positive note. We then went to the Center of Excellence after jumping for a strength session. Today, the team headed down to Soldier Hollow for an interval session. I felt great warming up and skied really well through most of the intervals. However on the last two my legs started to fade. This week has started off really well and I am looking forward to jumping tomorrow and finishing the week off strong! Saturday, my teammate Bryan Fletcher is getting hitched! I want to congratulate Bryan and his fiancee! Bryan is one of my biggest role models and I wish him all the best!
I hope everyone is enjoying the fall like weather and getting ready to dust off the skis!
