Katie Ronsse: November 2010
http://katieronsse.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
XC Ski Racing, Health, and Outdoor Adventures. Thursday, November 25, 2010. Racing, Pig Noses, Deck Jumping, and Heaven. The past couple weeks "on the road" have included racing, pig noses, deck jumping, and landing in nordic ski heaven. On the racing front, I want to start off by bragging about my talented teammates. On each of the race days I had something to be excited about, regardless of my own results, because it was inspiring to see the friends I've trained with all year kill it! Here's Greta Ande...

http://katieronsse.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
XC Ski Racing, Health, and Outdoor Adventures. Monday, February 14, 2011. A Month of Many Highlights. Wow, it seems as though quite a lot has happened since my last update at US National Championships! The biggest news is that I will get to become a student at University of Utah's doctorate of Physical Therapy program, which is my top choice for grad school! I will begin the 3 year program in May and I am psyched! Spending time with my teammates and getting to see them dominate the racing scene! It is pr...

Devil’s Thumb Ranch | Laura Valaas

Devil’s Thumb Ranch. Hooray… we get to go to the SIA On-Snow Demo. At Devil’s Thumb Ranch. I have to be in the Skadi Nordic booth during the demo hours 9am-4pm… that still gives me lots of time to go skiing right? So I guess what I’m saying is that anyone who wants to come do a midday stint as a Skadi Nordic rep at the On-Snow demo is more than welcome to come take my place for an hour or two….

Thanksgiving! | Laura Valaas
http://lauravalaas.com/2010/11/26/thanksgiving
Adela with Christmas tree. Ryan watching Adela pull the Christmas tree, so chivalrous. Loki, dog of winter. Hurray for my first Thanksgiving at “home” in a long time! I am using quotes around home to indicate that we were not actually at home for Thanksgiving, but at a close enough location so as to be considered home (not to incorrectly provide emphasis). Good snowstorm, good turkey, good game of pictionary, good to be normal. Previous Post: Bike… fit. Next Post: New Year’s Weekend.

You are currently browsing the Travel category. Last weekend I managed to complete the 2011 Hog Loppet for the first time since… 1997? That’s a long time ago! They’ve made a lot of improvements to the grooming and the course was mostly well groomed (except for the very first tromp through the trees). Here’s a screen shot of the route. You can also view more information about my ski on Saturday HERE.

SIA Denver | Laura Valaas
http://lauravalaas.com/2011/01/27/sia-denver
If I’m learning anything at these trade shows, it’s that trade shows are a Big Deal. The amount of work that goes into putting together a trade show (or any convention, I imagine) is huge. Two days before the trade show starts all the crates get moved in, overhead signs set up and the booth building begins. It’s a tangled mess of crates, boxes, packing material, real-sized erector sets, forklifts and people. Previous Post: Skadi Nordic Ski Tie. Next Post: Boulder Mountain Tour.
