The regular season is over, and the spring is on the way. Springtime is probably the best time here in Utah, with sick skiing in the mountains and t-shirt weather downtown. But before I/we can enjoy this, we have the 2010 NCAA Championships coming up. This year it will be held in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, the same place Western Regional’s were last weekend.
The team is looking good right now, and I know we are able to get some good results next weekend. Since Regional’s were at the same place, the whole team was able to race in NCAA have been able to race on the same courses that will be used during the championships. Last weekend we showed that we are able to perform well there. Zoe had a sick classic race and ended fourth, while Miles stepped it up from Nevada invitational and finished sixth. In the skate race on Saturday we had three boys finishing top ten, Miles, Martin and me. On the girls side Zoe had the best finish again with an eight place. Our alpine team also did well, and the best result was Anna’s victory in the women’s slalom. So again the team is looking strong and I am sure we will have a strong NCAA championship.
After NCAA’s the season is totally over, and time to do something else. I am looking forward to do a lot of other things that we are not able to do during the season, I am specially looking forward to go backcountry skiing. In the spring it is nice to take totally off, and don’t think about Nordic skiing at all. With backcountry skiing you have fun at the same time you getting in some serious training too.
