The Beginning

If you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always gotten. Anthony Robbins

As the summer ends, our new skating season begins. It is a time for change. This year the girls are not taking any time off. We came back from our last competition of the year, NIRA Nationals, on 9/6 and the girls skated the first indoor practice of the season on 9/7.

As usual, as we reflect over the past season, we see the need to tweak and change our training plan. We hope to eliminate some of the issues we had last season. One thing the girls unanimously decided was to head back into the gym. They both were excited to get back to the basics and work on conditioning and improving their core strength.

Road Rash – Take Two

What started out as a normal Sunday morning 20k ended with a crash, boom, bang. The hub in Courtney’s front wheel cracked and broke causing a chunk of the hub to get stuck between her wheel and frame. Of course that resulted in Courtney getting friendly with the pavement. Again. She fell on the same knee that she hurt at ODN in August. The road rash is in the exact same place. Fortunately, she didn’t land full impact on the patella this time. The swelling and bruising is not nearly as severe as it was at ODN.

It seems as though she has had a few too many run ins with the asphalt over the last few months!!

The Road Trip

It is that time of year again! We will be hopping into the Suburban and heading North to Lincoln, NE in less than two weeks. I can’t believe how quickly the last year flew by. The trip is about 1550 miles and it will take us a little bit over 24 hours.

Courtney’s New Skates

Courtney had a surprise waiting for her when she got home yesterday. She has skated two practices in her new Pinnacle boots and her feet are feeling great!
