I took my first fall of the season warming up for our skate time trial last Saturday. I am impressed that I've only fallen once this summer, but it was a pretty pathetic fall so I'm a little embarassed about that part. I turned around in the road to ski back to the start, miss-stepped onto a ski, and tipped over onto my hands and one knee. But now I have a scab to moniter the progress of and blood spots on my boots. Exciting stuff, I tell you.

Our camp up on the North Shore of Lake Superior was fun. Piotr made us really good food everyday. My only complaint was that he didn't buy us any chocolate in any form. But the rest of the food was quality. The trails that we got to run on were really pretty with nice overlooks of lake Superior. I liked getting to meet more of the Midwest juniors and get to train and hang out with them.
