Trolls

Mo and I made friends with a couple of trolls on our day off yesterday!

Mo's new rain boots!!  A new addition to my suitcase this year is a Dr. Seuss book on every trip.  This trip is my all-time favorite of his: The Lorax.

Newell, Kikkan, Matt and I went on an awesome skate tour this morning.  Fresh snow, grooming a few days old, but perfect for balance training and great to get off the race trails for the mental side of things.

We travel to some amazing places as athletes and it is really great to take advantage of the places we are when it is possible to.  We are here to ski race as fast as possible, but it is necessary to get away from the venue and explore too.
