This winter, I have done a lot of hard, focused work on my bike indoors.  I have followed a strength and conditioning program put together by my physiotherapist.  I have logged a lot of intense workouts cross-country skiing (freestyle, or "skate" is my favorite!), and off-trail snowshoeing.

I am almost ready to kick off the 2013 race season.  I'll be making the most of the remaining training days left for preparation.  I'm looking forward to getting back into the race peloton and tearing up the scene with my N.O.W. and Novartis for M.S. teammates

Another huge thing that I am really looking forward to is getting fully kitted up in Specialized equipment for 2013.  I've already been sporting my favorite Specialized T-shirt in anticipation...
