Well, we have all safely arrived in West Yellowstone and been skiing for 4 days now. Everything here has been awesome so far! We had a long 14 hour drive on Saturday and got in around 7:30 PM.

We are staying in two condos and have several rooms at the Days Inn where the majority of the teams are staying. On Sunday we all got up and went for a morning run at 7.

That afternoon we skated. It felt great to get familiarized with my skis again. We have five awesome coaches from Far West with us and its been awesome to ski with everyone of them!

On Monday we did the same thing as Sunday except got to ski with some different coaches. Yesterday, Tuesday, We did intervals together as a team. These were some hard intervals. All the guys skied together and we did these on the 1k sprint course for Fridays race. I did four of these intervals and then was able to catch some video after. Here is a little video recap so far of our trip!
That afternoon we did some classic specific strength.
Today we didn't have to run. This morning I classic skied for two and a half hours. It was a lot of fun to get out of the trees onto some different trails.
