SNOW!

Well it's September 21st, and a little early for snow but despite the weather I had a wicked run this morning, with an awesome crew!


Part of our awesome crew of ladies.


So snowy!



We stopped to admire the de Nys Family snowmen!

Quebec Camp!

It was a short, intense and very rainy camp we had in Quebec last week. It was awesome to join up with CNEPH and have a few more girls (and a lot more guys) to train with!
It was close enough to home that I got a weekend visit from mom and Kieran, and Kieran even braved the rain to join us for a rollerski workout which was fun.
As you can see it was pretty wet:


The rain didn’t stop us from getting in a number of very high quality intensity sessions, here’s the women’s team doing some uphill sprinting:




Rainy Quebec doesn’t seem so bad now. We are back in Canmore where I wake up to my neighbours scraping frost off their windshields in the morning, and when I look out the window I see a blanket of snow covering the surrounding mountains. It’s a beautiful sight, but it’s still September!




Luckily in a week we are heading down to Park City to our annual altitude camp where hopefully we will get some sun and warmer weather!
