post season blues

blues as in blue skies, we are not very sad people.

Anyways, thought we could put up a little something about the wonderful post season that we Purple Knights have been experiencing.

The most recent team workout for all of us was a trip to Ben and Jerry's (women's team bonding)

haha, but seriously, we have not given up training yet.
I personally have been doing a bit of cross training working on my rock climbing skills and kayak rolling skills. Joe happened to spot me at the rock wall last week and gave me some (useful?) tips on how to get up that ridiculous wall. Thanks.

The team as a whole has done quite a few post season races. We could be spotted both at the Trapp Family Lodge 10k on April 3rd and also at the Jericho 5 or 10k the following day. It was a warm weekend and crazy outfits were encouraged by all, sported by many. We got to test out the biathlon guns at Jericho (Silke would have been proud) and I'm happy to announce that we're all quitting the team to become biathletes. Just kidding. It was fun though.

In these past couple week individual, possibly adventurous runs seem to be the style. Everyone is quite busy with finals season upon us, yet lets not forget the wax box clean-up that needs to happen. hmmmmm?

note: Trapps is looking a little lean snow wise, but there are still some lingering drifts at the cabin along with the cutest, fattest chickadees ever so it's worth the trip.

love,

Big Purple
