I was the only beginner skater at the make-up lesson after heavy, late summer rain kept us off the track. After off-skate warm ups, Hells Belski got me kitted out and Crab Attack helped me lace up my skates for the first time. The advanced skaters whizzed off, and I […]

This is typically not my thing, but I figured I would give an update on what I’m doing on the off season! Normally I do nothing. By nothing I mean work, eat, sleep, repeat. And mix in a very little family/fiancé/friend time. This year I am challenging myself to be […]
