How is Training Going ?

People ask us this. We ask ourselves this. We think we are doing well. Lots to work out and figure out as newbies to PQ and as a new team. We are thankful the snow seems to be melting away. The temperatures are beginning to rise. The creeks are flooded, causing great play waves but tricky creek kayaking. The dirt roads and trails are mud.

How is training going. GREAT! We are climbing each week, PQ style. Thanks to Jay and Dave in Utah. We are learning to cave, not spulunk (sp?). We are learning how to navigate, crawl and get polka dot bruises in caves. Master's swimming and kicking gets the heart rate up. Thanks to Barb at Global Market, we have a couple double kayaks to play with on the water. We are getting better at trekking/running at a PQ pace. This means a pace we can maintain for the endless miles and hours that may(will ?) be required. It is always tempting to just run! We are hungry to ride for hours and miles. This will be soon. We are experimenting with foods and eating and getting the calories in as we play (train?).

Thanks to everyone who has supported us and helped us with sponsorship. You can't beat the support of locals in SD and friends.

Our needs for gear and support continue. We 'give back' as much as we can. Give us a call!
