Catching up

Its been a while since I have updated. Sorry about that! Our computer has been down, so I have had trouble getting online. We are up and running now though, so hopefully I will get back on top of updates!
Since Crankworx things have mellowed out a bit for me. We spent some time with friends in Vancouver, then caught a plane out to The Canyons Resort in Utah for the 1st round of the Jeep Series. I always look forward to these events as they are extremely well organized and professional. With all the strange weather lately, there was some serious worry that we may have to contend with a thunder storm for race day, but luck pulled through and we hit the track in the sun! It was a good track and I was having fun on it in the dry. I drew Anneke Beerten first round and she bested me on run #1. I knew I had to give it everything to make up some time on run #2 but I pushed it a little too hard and crash. Unlucky. That left me 5th overall at the end of the day. Not a bad start to the series.
This last week Jill and I have just been kicking back in Durango, training hard and starting to get myself ready for World Championships in 3 weeks in Scotland. We are staying out at the ranch with my trainer, Elke busting our butts and burning calories at FAT CAMP. It's all good.
I just caught another plane today with my training partner Joanna Petterson. We are heading out to the 2nd Jeep round today in Cali. Keep an eye on JeepSports.com for results and TV times. I believe the first event will be televised on August 18th from 5-6pm.
