On our way to Bozeman

We head out tomorrow to Bozeman for NCAA championships. Include the alpine contingent we have 4 total qualifiers with Caroline as our lone Nordic competitor. Should make for a pretty easy week for me and Zach anyway. Caroline is racing so well right now that most anything is possible I think. I would not have predicted that her best finish place wise would be a 5th in the freestyle 5K as she has always tended to do better in the longer races but right now everything is clicking and I expect it to continue through next week so it should be an exciting couple of races. I will try to use the twitter feed a little more since we won't be as busy during the races.

I have to say that the 15 and 20K classic races this past Saturday ranked up easily in the top 5 most difficult weather I have ever seen a race in. It was very impressive seeing everyone stick it out and finish, and I was particularly impressed with Kelsey who did it with a cast on her hand/wrist from an injury in the 15K race two weeks earlier at Trapps.
Connor took some great photos during the weekend be sure to check them out, see previous post.
