What do the Comp Team Chikz do when there is a massive leaf pile?
Jump in it of course! Skis and all!

I got to coach these awesome guys as part of my Discipleship class.
It was an awesome experience and I hope to coach again sometime soon.


 
Yet another Eco-Challenge! Hannah and I skated, ran, and classic skied
for over 6 hours in Hayward, WI.

MEA Biathlon Camp: Mount Itasca, MN

 

 The carnage after the uphill test.  Every camp at Mount Itasca

we do a running time trial up the alpine area to measure improvements,

and pain tolerance.  Bonus points if you throw up.

This camp was focused on intensity, which left little time to take pictures.  We did running and skiing intervals and lots and lots of combos!

LNR High Altitude Camp: West Yellowstone, MT

West Yellowstone turns into a ski mecca for the annual Yellowstone Ski Festival.  LNR took over 50 juniors for a long week of volume at altitude.  I was sick for the week preceding West Yellowstone, and during the week, but still made major gains in fitness.

If a hill has a name, it must be a pretty darn big hill.
