SSCV Team HomeGrown in Park City

We are just finishing up a ski camp in Park City. It was a great week here with some pretty incredible weather for the middle of October. We had a great crew from Vail come along consisting of our coach Eric Pepper, Mike Vigers, Christian Shanley, and Cal Deline. I think it was a great camp for me but also for these young guys to see what the level of training is here. I know I never went to these kind of camps when I was their age. Something good to be exposed to at the high school level. It has been pretty fun to see these guys mix it up in the speed workouts, sprint workouts, and distance workouts. I'm pretty excited to see where all these young guns will be in the next 10 years.

For me it was a great chance to catch up with some old friends and to get some training in with some people that can really push me in workouts and kick my butt. Thats what you need to get to the next level.

Like I said the weather has been so awesome here. We got a chance to head out for a little run yesterday afternoon. Right after I had a chance to throw a quick little video together:

(I'd recommend watching it at full size)

Some pictures from the week:

Also on Monday I will be starting my new volunteer placement at Red Sandstone Elementary School (where I went to elementary school). Very excited to go and hang out with that class. I went to pizza party there last Friday because they had just finished up doing a serious week of testing so Mrs. Chalk was nice enough to get them some pizza.

We're having the rest of Team HomeGrown over for dinner tonight and the Kate/Simi show. And not to mention the man, the myth, the legend Nathan Winebaum. Good to see old college buddies!
