yesterday I skied with the Utes on a distance rollerski around sugarhouse park. It was a whole lot of fun because I don't usually get to ski with people who are faster than me. that's the catch of not being on a college ski team and skiing with juniors. the kids on the TUNA team are all really fast, but I am 2-3 years older than most of them, and they haven't been training as long as I have. It was an amazing opportunity to ski with the Utes. I am thankful that Wendy gave me the chance. On Thursdays, their team is somewhat split so there weren't many people there. I was lucky enough, though, to ski right behind last years NCAA champ Snorri Einarsson. We skied easy all the way around the park until we came upon the hill right after the pond. We sprinted up that it, and then skied easy again. We did this for almost two hours and then went our separate ways.
Who knows? maybe if I ski with them enough, they'll give me a shot to ski for them next year. If not, I think I am going to transfer to a school that will have me. I don't really know what I want to do in school, but I do know that I want to ski for a school.
