Jeremy and I hit the track late yesterday evening for a couple runs down the track before taking the Thanksgiving holiday off. And, we are so glad that we did. (Flashback) The last time we were up on the track, our best time was a 52.25. Starting off the season with that fast of a [...]
Not a bad time for the first time back on the track… Yes, I got back in the sled on Saturday morning. It felt good to be back on the ice. Jeremy was feeling a little frisky and decided to take some strong lines. (I’m still feeling sore around the neck.) So, there’s the bench [...]
I don’t wan to say it… I don’t! Yesterday, the track was closed to bobsledding because of the luge. Tonight… I have no idea. But this is the end of my string of bad luck. I know I’m sliding tomorrow. (I hope) In better news, Brandon is in the lead right now. I really hope [...]
I don’t believe it! The bobsled track is closed to bobsledders tonight… (Speechless!) — VOTE FOR BRANDON —
I was so excited to go bobsledding last week, but due to track closures and previous plans to see my father’s show in Vegas… bobsledding didn’t happen. Not this week! Oh no! I’m wishing upon my lucky stars and keeping my rabbits feet close by to make sure I go sledding this week. The plan [...]
…we didn’t go sliding tonight. Bum deal. Not sure the reason behind the track being closed for the evening, but that’s just what happened. There’s always another day.
…it’s bobsledding time! We are going sliding on Thursday! All I gotta say is, “It’s about time!” Off-season training has ended and it’s time for the spikes to meet the ice. We’ve undergone a lot of training during the summer; even endured a couple of injuries, but we’re ready for the ’08-’09 season. We’ve got [...]
It snowed in Utah yesterday, about six inches – and that was in the valley! I can only imagine what the mountains got. Just watching the snow fall got me all excited for the bobsled season to get started. We are literally within days of pulling the sled out. In fact, just last week, we [...]
It’s been about 2 weeks since I’ve been to the gym. (Taking a little time to rest the back.) I must say… going on vacation is one thing, but you should never take a vacation from the gym. I’m so sore. I need to acclimate my body again. Geesh!
After returning home from a vacation in sunny Mexico, coming home to the cold Utah weather may be uncomfortable for some; it was a breath of fresh air for me. It’s freezing, and I love it. Am I crazy? No, I’m a bobsledder. The season is getting closer with every degree drop. Pretty soon there [...]
