Although my ski team comes darn close to immediate, it has been almost a decade since I have had Thanksgiving with my family. This year, we race on the eve of the feast as well as the two days following so the day of thanks will be filled with eating and resting!
Colin, Sophie, Mikey - North of Ketchum, the week before West
A year ago this Friday I raced the first event of the season and tore 2 and bulged 3 disks in my lower back. This time around, things will be better. The classic sprint on Wednesday is a qualifier (roughly a 1.5k race). Friday is a 5k skate with a 10k classic to follow on Saturday. These are three races that I am excited for, confident about and ready to do. Let the games begin.
Ferritin update: From 11 in September to 20 in October, I am now at 30! Continuing my treck back up to 60, where I was in '06, I am headed in the right direction. hopefully a really encouraging post to come on Wednesday! `kate

Kate,
Allez! Hup hup!
Good luck in West to you and the team from the Rawlings crew and the US Adaptive XC Ski Team -
Happy Thanksgiving too!
Hey, Rawlings!
Liz, I will try the anchovy dressing idea to go along with my spinach, thanks!
I hope all is wonderful in the land of Rawlings and USAXC! Hope to see the crew soon!
