October Photos

October's been good to us. The training has been high-quality, and the team is fitter and more focused than any group I've worked with in a long while. Here are some photos from the last few weeks:

Spencer on the scenic Androscoggin Bike Path. I swear that this would be one of the nicest rollerski training venues around if it weren't situated right next to Route 1. Even so, it's a great resource.


Emma working on getting her arms up in the double pole - got to take advantage of that farm girl strength.

Rare photo of Matty B - international man of mystery.

Skiers in the mist.

Jeff powering through a specific strength workout.

Jess working on balance - one-legged gliding downhill is always a tough challenge.

Will has made some nice technique gains this month. Polasky and James no-pole striding in the background - founding members of the Shoulder Injury Club.

The ladies in front of Waterman's on North Haven.

Maquoit Bay, the backdrop for much of our fall rollerskiing - nice to have the Atlantic Ocean right around the corner.

A couple weeks ago we were treated to the most gorgeous double rainbow I've ever seen. We started a classic workout at the tail end of a torrential downpour - 2o minutes later the rain stopped, and soon afterward the clouds opened up and this happened. My lame camera and lamer photo skills can't possibly do it justice, but it was pretty special. A good omen, perhaps. We're off to a great start.

Good to see the crew is keeping the energy high. I'm looking forward to some good Bowdoin results this winter.
