winter blog

Oh hi folks sorry for the delay I've been skiing in the beautiful mountains of British Columbia and I forgot about the internet.

That's me getting some decent airtime on a split board that splits into two skis so as to not require a chairlift for a wicked time in the snowy mountains.  It was a good break from kayaking, and although I posted a snowboarding picture we did WAY more cross country than alpine.  More cross country that I have ever done in 3 weeks in fact.  I feel like my lungs and heart are big and strong, and my legs are surely the fittest they have ever been.  Whistler treated us very nicely, hardly ever pointing out that we aren't actually from there (since it's obvious because we don't have Australian accents... half kidding!!). The Whistler Athlete Centre and the Whistler Olympic Park continue, in true legacy style, to be serving Canada's athlete population with the facility and infrastructure we require to compete at our very best.

Thanks to all the supporters and helpers and the snow for being great most days, and the sun for coming out!  Thanks to @B2Ten and Own the Podium and Canoe Kayak Canada and Whistler Legacies, and MAZDA for your huge support of our squad and our winter training camp!

I'm getting ready to get back on the water soon.  Plugging away at a last ditch effort to gain a little strength and mass, doing some paddle machine and pool (even though it's 6 degrees outside)... getting my affairs in order here in Toronto before migrating down to Florida like a Canadian Goose for the next few months to paddle my kayak in straight lines with very perfect technique at extremely top speeds until I can't everyday... with  "So much determination though..." "Childsplay..."

until next time...
